   Are Simond climbing ropes any good?

   • I got my last climbing rope from them. It's a 70m and 9.5mm in diameter. I really like it, very smooth and very easy to undo the knots after being weighted. All the Simond gear is good. I believe the ropes are made by the French brand "Cousin" but then sold as Simond by Decathlon.

   Can I use a Simond rope outside?

   • If it's UIAA then you're good to go. Just don't use that rope outside and it'll be fine. Got an 80m simond rope. Does the job!

   Is a Simond rope safe?

   • You can obviously take that with a big pinch of salt as his employer is in competition with Simond/Decathlon and all PPE gear has to meet UIAA and CE test so is "safe" in that sense, but he wasn't going to climb on that rope! I bought a skinny Simond single rope out in France this summer, it's been great.

   How much does a Simond rope cost?

   • The Simond rope was £130. The major brands were all well over £200 for that length of rope. Of course, those ropes might be better in the long term, or have better handling etc., but cost was a factor. I also wanted to give Simond a go just to see what they were like. 8.9mm!!

   What size climbing rope is a Simond edge?

   • The Simond Edge is a 8.9mm CE certified climbing rope, and meets the UIAA standards for use as a Single, Half or Twin Rope. Used as a Single it is certainly at the "skinny" end of the diameter range (the lightest, skinnies Single Rope on the market is the 8.5mm Beal Opera)!

   I believe the ropes are made by the French brand "Cousin" but then sold as Simond by Decathlon. Also, all the hard gear (carabiners, ice axes, crampons...) are made by the original Simond factory in Chamonix, they've been around since 1860!

   Oct 20, 2016 · Well Simond don't (or certainly didn't) produce their own ropes - as far as I know they are manufactured by Cousin (I think, though I'm not absolutely sure???) So the comment would be better worded '... don't know how they can sell for that price.'

   Feb 27, 2019 · There have been a few threads about Decathlon Simond ropes. I recently bought a Simond 8.9mm 100m rope from Decathlon for a trip to Chulilla. Having been to Chulilla before I wanted to make the most of the 50m routes without having to do intermediate lower offs.

   The Simond carabiners and ropes ARE in fact properly CE and UIAA tested. There's a pretty simpel reason for that: no climber in their right mind would ever consider buying one of those things without these norms.
