These simply unique alpine runners are made with a continuous coil of ultra-high tenacity yarn covered with a braided sheath.  A revolutionary stitchless design.   Ultra-resistant to UV and abrasion.  Available in several lengths.  The 55cm is ideal for use as extendable quickdraws.  The 90cm and 110 cm are perfect to build equalized anchors by using an appropriately positioned overhand knot or lark's head.  These will not replace all of your traditional slings and runners, but are a great complimentary addition to your climbing kit.  These runners are made of ultra-static materials and they cannot be used as a belay lanyard.

Henry O. ★★★★★

Left this clipped to my harness for a full season of sandstone cragging and the sheath still looks new, no fraying where it rubs the carabiner. The UV resistance is real too, it hasn't faded or gone chalky like my old cord did.

Michael H. ★★★★★

The stitchless coil design means no lumps or snags when clipping, which I didn't expect to notice as much as I do. After a season of sun exposure the sheath still looks brand new, no fading at all.

Natalie ★★★★★

Left these on my rack all summer and the UV hasn't touched them — no fading, no fraying at all. The braided sheath grips well even when wet, and the stitchless coil means there's no bulk knot to snag.
