<p>The Heron is a good rope for universal use. It's adequately beefy for sport climbing and top roping, but skinny and supple so you won't mind carrying it to the furthest route from the parking lot. It absorbs less than 2% of it's weight in water, so it's less susceptible to freezing in wet, cold conditions.</p><ul><li>Thermo Shield treatment gives it excellent handling properties, a supple feel and an impressive strength rating</li><li>EcoDry finish durably water-repellent and dirt-resistant without the use of PFCs</li><li>Meets UIAA standard water-repellent test, meaning this rope is fast-drying, absorbs virtually no water and resists freezing</li><li>3D lap coiled so you can use it straight away without kinking or tangling</li></ul>

Edelrid Heron Eco Dry 9.8mm Rope

Dry ropes have a water-resistant treatment on both core and sheath. Dry (UIAA certified) ropes have both core and sheath treated, plus meet the UIAA Water Repellent standard by passing a stringent test where a soaked rope cannot absorb more than 5% of the rope's weight.  

Maximum elongation in the first UIAA test fall, where a weight is attached to the rope and then dropped. Higher numbers indicate stretchier ropes. 

In controlled tests, a weight is suspended from the rope (not dropped). Higher numbers indicate stretchier ropes.

The amount of force, in kN, that the first UIAA fall puts on the falling object. Less impact force puts less force on the climber, belayer, and protection during a fall. 

Indicates the number of consecutive falls a rope withstood during testing in a controlled environment. The number is for reference only, and does not indicate the number of falls a rope will withstand during actual use or over its lifespan.
