The rope dilemma! Wrap it up or leave it loose in the bag? It's an issue that divides climbers. There are those who follow a methodical approach and can't bear to see it messy in the sack, while others are more relaxed and have never wrapped it in their life. As Horace wisely said: "in medio stat virtus".
For those who practice rock climbing, it is not mandatory to coil the rope every time. Simply place it in the appropriate bags, which are now included in almost all sport climbing backpacks. However, if the gesture of carefully arranging the rope helps to end the day of climbing better, there are no obvious contraindications.
For those venturing along longer routes, winding the rope becomes a necessary obligation for reasons of practicality and safety.
But how to wind the rope so that it is then easy to unwind? Among the numerous videos available online, one worthy of note is that of "Uncle Ezio", who illustrates the advantages of doll wrapping. This method keeps the rope tidy, makes it easier to carry, and even allows you to wear it over your shoulders like a backpack. If, however, the backpack is already loaded with equipment, you can simply place it over your shoulders.
Regardless of the winding method chosen, experience teaches that, if you tackle the first section of the day without knowing the route, running the entire rope to check for knots is generally a good practice.
