Why We Like The Wild Country Helium 3.0 Rack
The Helium collection consists of Wild Country's lightest carabiners, and the Helium 3.0 Rack consists of six Helium carabiners in various colors to complement our climbing gear. Unlike most wire gates, the Helium has a snag-free gate similar to solid gates with keylock noses. Wild Country hot-forged it in an I-Beam shape to reduce weight as much as possible without inhibiting overall strength. The result is a solid climbing carabiner that weighs a little over an ounce.

I like to break these down and use them on extendable alpine draws. Best carabiners for trad/alpine on the market.

They're light and rack well for my standard trad cragging adventures. They feel almost as light as mini biners, but with much easier handling. The only reason I'd hesitate to recommend is the bent gate isn't the most conducive to easy clipping.

The nose profile on these carabiners is a little wider than I was hoping for, but it's not that big of a deal since they will primarily be used as a racking carabiner.

Match the Friends cam colors nicely - except only one silver! (A full set of Friends has two silver cams.)

Good hook-free nose design. Much more elegant than the BD "hoodwire" bs. These biners are on the large end of the size spectrum for wire gates. Love the I-Beam construction for weight reduction.
