The COURANT KALIMBA is a versatile arborist rope designed for everyday work in tree canopies. It combines stable handling, low elongation, and long-term reliable performance during ascent and work positioning. It features a 24-strand construction with an X-BRAID core, which retains its flexibility even with intensive use and ensures smooth handling without a pronounced bounce effect.

The 11.8 mm diameter matches the standard of arborist equipment and ensures full compatibility with common mechanical devices and descenders. Bright color combinations improve visibility both in the tree canopy and on the ground. The rope is suitable for DRT/MRS and SRT/SRS techniques.

A rope designed from practice — for practice.
