LIGHTWEIGHT QUICKDRAWS
Shed weight and save moolah this month with some new lightweight quickdraws - courtesy of Mountain Tools.
Minimalists now have several options as do lighter climbers who before had to carry a higher percentage of their body weight in carabiners. Now every climber can be as light as their new 'draws!
Several choices abound - each with subtle features that beg comparison. The NANO is the unbelievable lightweight leader - key chain size and as strong as the big boys; the PHANTOM sports rope bearing grooves and a subtle "S" curve gate - for easier rope clipping; the OZ has bumps on it's nose to help keep the gate shut... and your rope inside; the XEXON LT wins the "best features & value under 30 grams award" - check the details and than the price! The SUPERFLY has a bead blasted finish and is a great size - for only a gram more!; HELIUMS are near full size (at half the weight) and fitted with a no snag CleanWire Gate - pleasing to sportsters and tradsters alike; ditto for the SHIELD - which can't snag on hanger, web or rope and has a "S" curve spine for clipping control; NEUTRINOS were one of the first lightweights and their reputation for toughness and durability makes them a favoite of free climbers, aid climbers & alpinists. Check out the XENON same size/shape as the HELIUM with crazy good looks, full features and an insane $13.90 price!!!
