2m Nope Rope

£4.25

One 2m Upcycled Practice Rope section

The perfect length for dialling in your basic rope craft — anywhere, anytime.

Keen to dial in that slick one handed clove-hitch? Tired of having to re-tie your figure of eights every, darn, time? These 2-metre rope sections are cut from real retired climbing ropes, rescued from UK climbing gyms and manufacturers before they hit landfill — then cleaned, trimmed and made perfect for pure ground-based training.

If you want to master tying in, refine your rope handling, coach others, or just keep your muscle memory sharp between sessions, this is the most portable, low-faff, skill-boosting tool you can own.

NOT PPE. This is a section of retired climbing rope, repurposed strictly for ground-based knot-tying practice — it is not load-bearing and must not be used for climbing or safety.

Why 2 metres?

Because it’s long enough to simulate real harness tie-ins and rope management drills, but short enough to throw in your bag, desk drawer, van cubby or coat pocket.

Ideal for:

  • Practising knots like rethreaded figure-8 and bowline tie-ins, etc

  • Instructor demo sessions / NICAS coaching prep

  • Keeping rope handling muscle memory alive — even off the wall

What can I practice with 2m lengths?

  • Clipping

  • Knots and hitches

  • Harness tie-ins

  • Also great for crafting - just no loading or weighting!

2m is the most portable size. Great for practicing tying-in to your harness or for basic knot-tying.

As ever, all practice is intended to be on the ground and unweighted.

Why a Nope Rope?

Each rope length is cut from genuine climbing rope that’s finished its life on the rock or wall — rescued, cleaned, and repurposed so you can practice real rope handling at home or in training. Perfect for learning to tie in, practicing the knots you need to know, or simply keep your skills sharp between climbs.

These sections are:

  • Sustainably sourced from retired or QC-failed climbing ropes.

  • Single ropes, typically 9–11 mm in diameter.

  • A variety of colours and patterns, each with its own story.

A portion of our profits go directly to charities that look after our communities and the outdoor spaces we love!
