Climb down using rope (6)

I believe the answer is:

abseil

(Other definitions for abseil that I've seen before include "Lower oneself with a rope from a mountainside" , "Slide down on rope" , "Descend down vertical surface using rope" , "Descend rock face on rope" , "Use a rope to climb down a mountain" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
