Fixe Foixarda 9.8mm

The Fixe Foixarda rope is a superb option for novice sport climbers, whether tackling natural rock or a climbing wall.

The Foixarda offers a confident, comfortable handling experience and is ideal for climbers who value an extra touch of security with their belay devices. With a diameter of 9.8 mm, it is highly sought after by sport climbers and suitable for climbers of all levels.

The Foixarda Tunnel, located in Montjuïc mountain in Barcelona, is one of the world's largest outdoor urban climbing walls. It has served as the gateway to the world of climbing for generations of climbers in the city and has inspired the name of this rope. Although its heyday was in the 1990s, it remains a popular meeting point for urban free climbers.

Twisted Endurance Construction:A 48-wire braid extends the rope's lifespan and improves handling when compared to a lower braided rope.

This prolongs the life of the rope by more than 60%. (Fixe in-house abrasion testing studies have held up 300% longer than classic strings). Endurance construction gives ropes a nicer feel, greater fluidity, and the ability to withstand 30% more abrasion cycles.
