Most Helpful Positive Review Solid thick rope for gym and short outdoor routes
Used this in the gym and for training outdoors on a short route to teach rapelling and basic lead climbing skills. I'm happy with it. Smooth handling and didn't kink up too much first few times using it.

Black Diamond 9.9 dynamic indoor rope 40 meter

by Serino, Verified Owner from MA, United States Written on April 23, 2025
I had previously given this product a very favorable review. But it wore out quickly. It is only my third indoor climbing rope. I had been using the slim Gym (30 meter) before.purchasing this rope. The Slim gym ropes lasted me 1.5 to 2 years before i decided to retire them. Even then they were not too "squishy". Without changing my top rope or lead climbing frequency this rope is ready to be retired after only 4 months. I will not purchase this rope again. Although everything about when its being used is great it simply does not last.
Pros:
  • Price, fit and comfortable
Cons:
  • wears out easily
Would recommend: No

Black Diamond 9.9 dynamic indoor rope 40 meter

by Steve Serino, Verified Owner from MA, United States Written on January 7, 2025
Smooth makes for easy efficient clipping. black middle point gets hands dirty but that should wear off. My last two ropes were Slim Gym ropes (10.1) which I loved. This rope is a bit thinner which is great for feeding rope but when lowering heavier people, it's a bit more challenging. Have not had a long fall on it yet, but so far it seems like a pretty good replacement for the Slim Gym. If you shop around, you can get a good price.
Pros:
  • smooth, inexpensive
Cons:
  • kinks
Best Used for:
  • Gym sport or top rope
Would recommend: Yes

Slick Gym Rope

by Shell, from NJ, United States Written on November 1, 2020
This rope is slick out of the box. I really like the blue. Relatively easy to unfurl. Feeds pretty easily, but the core is stiff, slowing down the end of the feed of an armful of rope. Not a bad thing, just different from my last rope. I've only taken a pretty soft one on it so far, but it stretched nicely in the catch.
Pros:
  • nice color
  • Solid core
  • Smooth feed
Cons:
  • shorter length
Best Used for:
  • gym climbing
Would recommend: Yes
