TENDON Celebrates 20 Years: Introducing the Special Edition Anniversal 9.5 Rope

Anniversal 9.5 – A Versatile Partner for Every Climb

The Anniversal 9.5 is a special-edition dynamic rope crafted to combine versatility, durability, and maneuverability in perfect balance. Ideal for sport climbing, traditional routes, and multi-pitch ascents, it is a trusted partner for a wide range of climbing adventures.

Specially knitted for TENDON’s 20th anniversary, the Anniversal 9.5 features a unique blend of two colour variant of fibers, creating a subtle melange effect. Each rope is slightly different, making every piece one of a kind.

Key Features:

  • Versatile use across various climbing styles
  • Uncompromising durability for extended rope life
  • Increased feeling of safety thanks to a robust braid structure
  • Lightweight design – only 4 kg for a 60 m rope
  • Available with or without UIAA-compliant impregnation to suit different needs

The thick braid not only enhances durability but also ensures a secure and comfortable handling experience, making the rope an excellent choice even for novice climbers.

Award-Winning Performance Recognized by Klettern Magazine

The Anniversal 9.5 has already made an impressive entrance onto the climbing scene, earning a prestigious award from the German climbing magazine Klettern. Competing against ten other ropes, the Anniversal 9.5 stood out for its combination of light weight, smooth handling, and exceptional performance during belaying and rappelling.

Highlights from the Klettern Review:

  • Low weight: just 4 kg for 60 meters
  • Affordable price despite premium performance
  • Beginner-friendly 9.5 mm diameter, offering better handling and more comfort
  • Pleasant, slightly rough texture for secure grip during clipping and abseiling

"This newcomer weighs just four kilograms – and yet it is available at an extremely reasonable price," praised the Klettern editors. They highlighted its ideal performance for climbers facing long and steep ascents without the burden of high costs.
