The 9.1mm ultra-lightweight multi-purpose rope was the first in the world to meet all three standards for dynamic ropes. The impregnation options make the rope suitable for all outdoor applications, but its thickness makes it particularly suitable for very experienced climbers. The Joker 9.1mm is available in both Dry Cover and Golden Dry impregnations and is also available with Safe Control braid treatment (DC impregnation). All variants of Joker are equipped with UNICORE® technology, which increases the safety and durability of the rope by connecting the core and the braid.
