¿CINTAS DE DYNEEMA O CORDINOS PARA LAS REUNIONES EN VÍA LARGA?

¿Qué utilizas para construir tus reuniones en vía larga? Aquí te damos nuestra opinion y que conviene utilizar en cada situación.

¿Sabías que cuando haces un nudo en una cinta de dyneema esta pierde hasta un cincuenta por ciento de su resistencia? 

Aun así muchas personas utilizan este material para construir las reuniones en vía larga. En varias pruebas realizadas por algunas de las marcas de escaladas líderes, como DMM o Black Diamond, se ha demostrado que una cinta de dyneema con un nudo puede romperse tan solo con la energía generada por una caída de factor 1 (si no sabes que es una caída de factor 1, te recomendamos que mires este video).

Desde nuestro punto de vista podemos utilizar cintas de dyneema o cordinos, siempre y cuando consideremos los anclajes sobre los cuales construimos la reunión y entendamos las limitaciones de cada material. Así por ejemplo, si vamos a confeccionar la reunión sobre dos chapas con parabolts, los cuales consideramos seguros y fiables, podemos utilizar una cinta de dyneema sin problema ya que las probabilidades de que alguno de estos puntos falle es muy baja o nula y por lo tanto los riesgos de generar un factor de caída susceptible de romper la cinta son muy bajos.

Sin embargo, si vamos a construir la reunión sobre material móvil (empotradores o tascones) o poco fiable como por ejemplo pitones o buriles, nuestra recomendación es siempre utilizar cordinos de 7 mm de diámetro como mínimo. El cordino presenta mayor dinamismo a la hora de trabajar con las fuerzas que puede generar una caída o la falla de uno de los puntos de anclaje y esto reduce la sobrecarga que se produciría sobre el o los puntos restantes. Además sería más resistente y tendríamos un menor riesgo de rotura del cordino.

Pros de las cintas de dyneema 

  • Material liviano y fácil de transportar
  • Velocidad a la hora de construir la reunión

Contras de las cintas de dyneema

  • Solo sobre anclajes fiables (parabolts en buen estado)
  • Difícil deshacer el nudo cuando se carga
  • Pierde resistencia cuando hacemos un nudo
  • Largo limitado (60 o 120 cm)
  • Material estático
  • Poca resistencia a la abrasión

Pros de los cordinos 

  • Se puede utilizar sobre cualquier tipo de anclaje.
  • Se puede regular el largo fácilmente 
  • Permite construir reuniones con múltiples puntos de manera más eficiente.
  • Material dinámico
  • Más resistente a la abrasión

Contras de los cordinos

  • Material más pesado y robusto


Para nosotros no existe una respuesta absoluta. Siempre evaluaremos las circunstancias y haremos uso del material que tenemos entendiendo sus limitaciones.  Sin duda los cordinos son más polivalentes a la hora de construir una reunion, podemos ajustar el largo y nos dará una mayor seguridad a la hora de montar reuniones sobre seguros móviles. Sin embargo si sabemos que vamos a escalar vías en las cuales las reuniones están completamente equipadas con parabolts y en buen estado, una cinta de dyneema de 120cm podría ser una opción correcta.

(Translated by Google) My 12 year old son and I (50) did the rock baptism. I have no climbing experience. It was great. Santi very attentive and friendly at all times. It gave us a lot of security. It adapts perfectly to the level of each one and encourages you to improve yourself. Without a doubt, totally recommended! Thank you very much for everything Santa!

Santi is the best climbing guide you can imagine. As a reference, we two are 6a-7a climbers, but we wanted a local guide to help maximize efficiency in a foreign area. He was highly recommended to us by a friend who Santi guided a few months back, and he was as wonderful as described. He takes his role as Guide seriously and comprehensively, from helping you plan ideas for areas to concentrate on, considerations of weather and season, logistics for where to stay and how to get there (he picked us up one day, and we met him in our car another), as well as making himself available to help with any other questions or needs for the trip as a whole (not just the climbing part). Our long chain of detailed texts show how dedicated and sincere he is in wanting to help plan the best trip possible for you. This was highly unique, unexpected, above and beyond, and much appreciated. Before you've even met, he treats you more like a friend coming to visit Spain than a client that he is just doing business with, and that warmth goes a long way and sets him apart from most any other guide I've experienced (i've had great guides in my life, so this just reinforces Santi's particularly special character). Like I really felt like we were friends, and still feel like we are, as he reaches out and keeps in touch still and I really appreciate that relationship. Humanity, sincerity, and kindness in business--what a crazy (wonderful) concept! As a climbing guide specifically: he is consummately professional, impressively knowledgable and safe, as well as comfortingly sensitive to your climbing abilities and needs, and tailors each day with climbs that are perfect for you--if you want to be comfortable or if you want a little/big challenge, if you want to experience highlights of an area by switching up crags in the same day. He knows the areas so well and of course knows how to choose the walls that are in the shade or in the sun for whatever time of day or season you are climbing. There is so much variety and fun for either multi or single pitch too. In addition, when we were all climbed out for the day, he took the opportunity to show us the beauty of the local areas, playing also a photographer and travel guide. He also went home to let us borrow his guide book to other areas that we were headed to later, and kept in touch to make sure the rest of our trip went smoothly. So nice! Here is a person who treats his job as a climbing guide and ambassador for the area with such deep consideration and earnestness, and who treats his role as a human being with exceptional kindness and faith. We are so grateful that he came into our lives as a climbing guide and as a friend. Thank you Santi for being you, and please everyone call him now for any guiding adventures (he travels to guide too!) Also, his rates are so fair and reasonable. And you will be so happy if he is available to take you on an adventure with him! Cheers!

Santi hosted 5 of us amateur climbers in Siurana for 5 days, most of whom had never climbed outdoors before. We felt so safe with Santi as a guide, and he was able to provide climbing support as well as local recommendations (and jokes) at the same time! We all definitely leant a lot from him.

Just finished the 2-day multi pitch course. Excellent experience with our coach Santi, who is a professional and very experienced rock climber and alpinist.
We were taught all the techniques and logics to complete a multi pitch route in the mountains (the second day in Montserrat is amazing!).
We also had many nice small talks about risk management, how to start climbing multi pitch for beginners, etc.. Very nice people and vibe here ;)

Had a blast on my multipitch course with Southclimb! Everything was clearly explained and I had enough opportunities to practice. Good athmosphere and awesome routes, would definitely recommend!!

My goal coming to Spain was to get out for a couple days rock climbing with my family. I’m a fairly accomplished climber but the mechanics of trying to take the family out on my own. Mariano our guide was the perfect example of what a guide should be, he was quick to set up and take down the climbs, had the perfect eye for challenging but achievable routes for the family, was friendly, great with the kids, a just an all around good guy. I can’t recommend this company enough, and am already planning my return trip to Spain to climb with them.

Santi cared about my overall experience in Spain as much as providing me a great climbing experience. Since I am an experienced climber, Santi encouraged me to climb hard at the same time as keeping safety top of mind. You cannot ask for a better guide.

(Translated by Google) Santi is a great professional and passionate about climbing. I took the rock climbing course as a beginner and at all times I felt safe. It was a very funny experience. I have been left wanting more, so I will repeat again with them!
