  • Top-Quality Manila Indoor Climbing Ropes

    Did you know that rope climbing used to be a competitive sport? It's true - the world-record time for climbing a 20-foot rope is less than 3 seconds - Amazing!

    There is no finer upper-body workout than rope climbing (which also builds a vise-grip to match). You used to be able to find climbing ropes in all the old-time gymnasiums but sadly, rope climbing opportunities are hard to come by these days.

    Now you can keep this centuries-old tradition alive and become super-strong in the process. If you are looking for the best manila indoor climbing ropes in the business, you have come to the right place.

    Our top-quality manila indoor climbing ropes are made with the finest 1.5" 3-strand manila (Becker Value 40). This natural-fiber rope absorbs perspiration for the best possible grip and is extremely durable under heavy use. One end features a steel attachment clamp for a safe and secure hold every time, and the other end is "polybooted" to prevent unraveling.

    Climbing Ropes - Very Simple But Very Effective

    Manila Climbing Rope Though very simple, climbing ropes offer a number of different training options. The most obvious option is to climb - whether in the traditional style, with a rope in each hand (2-rope style), or even upside down.

    Your second training option is to perform bodyweight-oriented movements with the rope such as pull-ups or hanging leg raises.

    A third option that you might try is to hook your rope on an overhead pulley for pull-downs or arm-over-arm training.

    These are just the tip of the iceberg. No matter how you decide to start training with your rope, there is no question that it will be a worthwhile addition to your training.

    "How Long Should My Climbing Rope Be?"

    This is our most popular question regarding climbing ropes. The general rule of thumb for choosing indoor climbing rope length is to have four extra feet of "slack" on the floor. The extra length allows for a much easier climbing experience and is also used for spotters to stand on in order to prevent swinging during use.

    We can do any length you need and custom lengths are available -- but we feature five standard lengths for immediate purchase: 15 feet, 18 feet, 20 feet, 22 feet, and 24 feet.

    "How Can I Attach My Indoor Climbing Rope?"

    Our second most popular question. We feature several different climbing rope attachment options depending on your situation - whether you would like to hang your rope from a steel girder, wood beam, or pipe. We also offer other custom options such as different kinds of knots. For a full listing of our available attachment hardware and custom knot options, visit our climbing rope attachment hardware page.

    Why You Only Should Go With The Best

    Serious Athletes train with only the best equipment, and these ropes are undoubtedly the best there is. You may be able to find lengths of manila rope elsewhere, but they will be of lesser quality and that means one thing - rope splinters. Also, you will not have the ease of use that the attachment hardware on these ropes provides. Go with the choice of the pros.
    For upper-body strength and power there is nothing better than rope climbing, and we feature the best climbing ropes you can buy - I guarantee it!
