La longueur standard d'une corde d'escalade est de 45 m [...] on utilise aujourd'hui des cordes faites de fibres synthétiques de nylon ou de perlon avec une gaine externe (pour réduire les dommages du frottement) et une âme centrale [...] Les cordes de fibre synthétique ont une capacité d'élasticité, de résistance et de souplesse exceptionnelle et sont hydrofuges (donc ne gèlent pas). 3, record 1, French, - corde%20d%27escalade

Les cordes d'escalade classiques sont dynamiques. Cela signifie qu'elles s'allongent sous la force d'un poids, absorbant ainsi l'impact de la chute d'un grimpeur et réduisant la force de choc qui pèse sur l'équipement de protection et le relais. 4, record 1, French, - corde%20d%27escalade

... Kernmantel rope has taken over the hawser-laid for climbing purposes. In these ropes [synthetic] strands are twisted together to make a core which forms the basic strength of the rope. It is protected by a sheath, which is a woven outer layer of hard wearing, colourful nylon which is forced over the core to form a very strong durable unit. 2, record 2, English, - kernmantle%20rope
