It only makes sense for half ropes to have reliable dry treatments because climbers generally climb alpine or ice with them. The Evolution Duetto DryXP Half Rope features Sterling's most recent dry treatment that actually complies with UIAA's water-resistant standards. DryXP practically eliminates water absorption and greatly enhances abrasion-resistance for more reliability when you're hundreds of feet in the air. With 8.4mm diameter, the Evolution Duetto is a mid-range half rope—not too fat, nor too skinny—just right for experienced climbers starting to use half and twin ropes.

Needed a couple 30m dynamic dry ropes for some Alpine touring 2018. These were affordable and fit the bill exactly. Bomber and highly recommended as best bang for the buck.
