The Cousin Trestec Optima StopAqua is a dry treated and triple rated dynamic climbing rope which we recommend for use with the Kong Slyde to produce a dynamic adjustable safety lanyard. It can also be used to make your own cowstail safety lanyard.

We sell it by the half-metre (50cm) so you can choose a precise length for your personal anchor system (e.g. if you want a 2.5 metre length, order 5 units).

This 8.9 mm rope, designed for mountaineering and ice climbing, is fully rated for use as a single, double and twin rope, with a 20.6 kN breaking strength.

The core and sheath are both impregnated with the StopAqua hydrophobic treatment, resulting in water absorption of less than 5 per cent. This treatment also reduces infiltration by dirt and grit, while increasing the rope’s abrasion resistance.

Lightweight with a reinforced sheath, it is ideal for use as part of an adjustable safety lanyard, providing dynamic shock absorption while remaining strong and hard wearing.

Key advantages:

  • ideal for use with a Kong Slide to produce an adjustable safety lanyard
  • fully-rated, strong, with good abrasion resistance
  • lightweight, supple, and easy to handle
  • StopAqua hydrophobic treatment for use in wet environments
