Super strong but lightweight cordage! Perfect for cordelettes, self-tied runners, and prussic loops.

A cord like this can be used in self-rescue applications and as an anchor. I always have one with me when multipitch climbing. It can also be cut up and used if you have to bail.

I like the purple :). I have two bundles of this stuff as my accessory cord. It is four of my wingspans long.
