At EpicTV, discover our selection of twin ropes, primarily used in mountaineering and ice climbing and essential for both ascents and descents. Twin ropes feature thin diameters and are always used in pairs for safety reasons—they should never be climbed on individually. Twin rope systems provide enhanced safety compared to other rope types.
In the event of damage from an ice axe or falling rock, the presence of a second rope offers a critical backup. It's highly unlikely for both ropes to be simultaneously damaged, making twin ropes a safer choice for challenging environments. We stock twin ropes from leading brands like Petzl, Tendon, and Beal.
Petzl, founded by caving enthusiast Fernand Petzl, has evolved into the premier innovator for vertical environments. Initially focused on underground tools, the brand quickly expanded to rock climbing, mountaineering, and professional sectors, including work and rescue at height. Renowned for its innovative solutions, Petzl has been a key player in major alpine and Himalayan expeditions since the 1970s. Their extensive range of products such as ice axes, GriGri's harnesses,ensures safety and reliability for adventurers and professionals alike.
