Reliable, stylish quickdraw.
Quick, easy, and reliable quickdraw. Not particularly heavy and absolutely perfect for sport routes. I generally like solid-gate draws like the Petzl Spirit Express but I've taken to the wire gate on the rope side surprisingly well. Plus I like the fact that it gets rid of the chance of gate flutter. Feels good in the hand (even though I slightly prefer bent-gate draws) and as reliable as any other black diamond product. I take these with me out to red rock and have gotten quite a few remarks on how cool the bright colors are as well.
Solid
Great draws that make for easy clipping. Took these to New Jack City first time out and had a blast.
Great Combo
Great quickdraw that is solid and can take abuse. I have put these draws through lots of scrapes and dings. The gates are solid, having a wire gate on rope side feels a lot lighter then a solid gate but these are no where near the lightest draws out there. If you care about weight don’t get these.
HOT PINK!
I have two sets of these draws one is orange the other is pink. after two years of sport climbing they are still in good shape. The pink draws are also quite popular so keep an eye on them!
Quality Quickdraws
There's no doubt that these draws are well-designed and made of quality materials. The gates are very tight compared to my old draws so this has taken some getting used to but I'd prefer a tighter gate over a loose one most days of the week. For the price, it's challenging to find a comparable medium-weight draw made with such quality materials. And I love the ultra pink finish - easy to see them at the crag and they doubly serve as dudebro repellent.
Excellent draws
It is great to have some of these paired with the 12cm version. The extra length is awesome when climbing steep or wandery bolt climbs. The extra length in the dog bone can reduce rope drag more than you would imagine.
Great quality and design
I already had the 12cm set and these just round out my collection of gear. Very useful in those tricky spots where you need just a bit more flexibility. Looking forward to using these for years.
Got two of these to
Got two of these to be my top an hoe set, or longer draws for weird spots requiring longer draws. Have only used as anchors for now, and they have been great.
My favorite quickdraws!
I love these so much. Smooth clipping and relatively lightweight. I also always get compliments about how bright and easy they are to see on the rock.
High quality
I use these carabineers for my keys so that I can clip them to my belt loops.
