They suck
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
I've been climbing a decade and these are my least favorite quick draws of all time. It's the biner that ruins it. The gates feel flimsy and unwieldy while unclipping. Another big issue is that the shape of these wire gates is known to because easier caught on the dog bone. For example, when leading above your clip, the rope lifts and rotates dog bone causing it to ride up from the basket of the carabiner until it ends up on or above the wire gate. Now if you fall, the dog bone runs the risk of getting caught on the gate's black plastic instead of falling back into the basket of the carabiner. The result is that your dog bone side loads ONLY the gate of the carabiner and of course your protection fails.
