Understand the Importance of a Dynamic Climbing Rope

"Hi! My name is Brandon. I'm with expertvillage.com, and today I”m going to show you how to rock climb. When climbing, you want to make certain that you're climbing on dynamic rope. Because the force of the fall can be so great, it can sometimes jolt the climber. Dynamic ropes are designed to stretch in order to take the force of the fall off of a climber and spread it throughout the length of the rope. The longer the rope is, the more the force can be spread out. So when you fall from the bottom of the wall, the force is least. Dynamic lines; to do this, stretch. Here's how much they bounce. It's called dynamic because of the stretch, like the dynamic movements I showed you earlier in the bouldering cave. These ropes will save your life."
