This revolutionary double rope for alpine climbing and mountaineering offers significantly better cut resistance and fulfills all the standards of a dynamic climbing rope. With the Core Protect Rope, it's all in the name: there is an extra aramid sheath between the polyamide outer sheath and core to protect the rope better from sharp crag and metal edges. In the event of a fall, this aramid sheath unfolds owing to its extra-long construction, and the rope performs just as dynamically as any other Mammut rope. Handling and abrasion resistance remain the same, but cut resistance is increased. Whether you are mountaineering, single- or multi-pitch climbing or ice climbing – with the Core Protect Rope you are taking your safety to a whole new level.

"Rope cutting may seem a niche concern for most users, but it does represent a major cause of rope failure, and a problem that is certainly worth addressing. The Alpine Core Protect Dry 8.0 is a great product and I'm all for innovation to improve safety. I was pleasantly surprised that handling hasn't been impacted by Mammut's construction, and it's great to carry a lighter rope whilst still feeling safe." - John McKenna, UKC Review
