Maxim's 9.9mm Glider climbing rope is the most popular of the entire MAXIM line. They've re-designed the product to have some great new features while retaining those that are most important to climbers.
The entire 9.9mm Glider range has a PFC/PFAS free TPT sheath made from the highest quality Nylon. The TPT sheath uses the unique weave pattern that gives these ropes their superior handling and reduced rope drag giving the feeling of lighter weight as you pull the rope through protection.
This rope from the Glider range is a Standard-Dry treatment with a regular pattern and comes with a middle marking. Additionally, the rope is coiled in Maxim's "ready climb" coil making them usable right out of the package.

*All MAXIM Glider ropes feature their Twill Pattern Technology (TPT), that gives it impressive drag reduction. This unique one-over-one braiding technology results in very supple feel, which makes the Glider series slide through belay devices without kinking. The MAXIM Glider excels at day-to-day single pitch cragging, particularly on sharp rock that can chew up ropes. It is incredibly durable, making it a great choice for people or groups looking for a rope that will last a long time and hold up to abuse while sport or trad climbing. What really separates the Glider from other (lead) climbing ropes is the supple feel, easy clips, and superior handling.
