"On Sale. Free Shipping. Sterling Rope Marathon Half 70 Meter Dry Rope (Spring 2007) The Marathon Half by Sterling Rope is the definitive half rope! Seen by many climbers as a specialty rope, half ropes have their devotees in the climbing community. The new 8.8mm Half provides the same durability and performance as all other Marathon Ropes. The Marathon Half however, is a truly versatile rope. Used in tandem, half ropes with their lightweight, smaller diameter offer many benefits for climbers. They offer the ability to alternately clip into protection, placing less impact on shaky gear, and provide extra protection against rope cuts on climbs where rockfall or sharp edges are common. On long traverses, they offer security and protection for the second in the event of a fall. Last, but not least, when every gram counts or when speed is the word of the day, the 8.8 Half makes rapping flawless.

From US Outdoor Store:
"Sketchy pro, rockfall, tenuous traverses, razor-edged rock bring terror to the minds of most climbers. In situations like these, a single rope just won't do, you need the confidence and the security that half ropes will provide. Used in pairs, half ropes offer climbers many advantages over single ropes. They allow the leader to alternately clip into protection, which places less force on shaky gear. On long traverses, they protect the second in the event of a fall. And, they provide the security of an extra rope in case the rope becomes cut from rockfall, sharp edges, or ice tools. Features:The lightweight Marathon 8.8mm is the ideal rope for these situations, with its thicker, durable sheath, and low impact force. The 8.8 is the top two rope choice of top alpinists and mountaineers worldwide"
