The Tendon Master Pro 9.2 is for sport climbers who want to use small diameter ropes but are not satisfied with their lifespans. The Tendon Master Pro 9.2 is able to withstand as many falls as the 9.9 mm rope and also features the SBS Sheath that not only enhances abrasion-resistance to increase the rope's lifespan but also makes the rope easier to handle and "run" smoother through belay devices for faster belaying. Tendon say that their development engineers have worked hard to achieve a high softness that you will become immediately fond of and will not want to change, a "new breed" of sport climbing ropes.
