What is Twill Pattern Technology (TPT)?
MAXIM’s Twill Pattern Technology (TPT) is a special cover design resulting in a twill pattern (one over one) or weave. Due to this design the cover has a smaller profile in cross-section than plain pattern ropes - the more traditional-looking climbing rope cover (two over two). A result of the smaller profile is improved abrasion resistance over abrasive surfaces, as well as significantly reduced drag in carabiners and mechanical devices. That’s why climbers use TPT-ropes for long rope lengths where drag should be reduced.
Made in the USA! These cords are proudly made by expert craftsmen and women in our US facility located in Fall River, Massachusetts.

Stiff and skinny
Have used only twice and needs a bit of break in period to literally get kinks out. Rappelling is smooth and fast with that diameter and loving the low stretching of a static cord…will try storing in rope bag rather than coiling at this point.
gets it done
So light, but handles amazingly well, considering. Despite having 265' in canyons, it didn't knot or bunch up, always easy to pull. If you have static only uses, I recommend. Wish it had a middle mark but you can take care of that. I use it with an Edelrid MicroJul belay device and the two work great together.
