Black Diamond Quicksilver Quickpack Quickdraws - 2007 BCS

Super light and sturdy. Gives you the "warm fuzzy" you want from your gear. Black Diamond usually gets it right.

These things are all you really need if your just starting out or are looking for some cheap draws. They are not the lightest or the fanciest but they will still catch a fall. Bottom line if your buying biners for alpine or trad spend a bit more but if your just getting into the sport or need some cheap draws then pick these up.

The headline says it all. I use these for sport routes and clipping into passive pro on lead. I've also found them to be pretty lightweight, considering similarly priced alternatives. You can't go wrong with these. Try to pick the Quickpack up on sale and save a few bucks.

just getting started or need to replace a bunch of old ones? this probably the best pack for price and quality. bent great is super easy and they are a pretty light set. you can't go wrong for sport or trad.

These are lightweight and super strong. Probably one of the most used and heard of draws on the market.

The bent gate on these are the best that I have clipped into so far. Love the weight on these and the price. Good for starting up your gear for climbing. Only thing I don't like is how they can easily turn from there original position on ya if your not careful, because of there thin runners. I've seen it happen to a few newbies going for the lead.

These are great quickdraws on their own... put six in a pack and you've got a great rack starter. I use them on sport routes and to clip to gear. They're fairly light and practical for the price range. Bent gate on bottom makes for very easy clipping.
Only drawbacks:
1)Kind of heavy compared to some quickdraws
2)carabiners can get hung up on harness or gear (remedy by replacing top carabiner with a keylock carabiner)

Got these as my first set of normal draws in addition to 4 or so single slings. They are simple, strong, and good feeling draws as far as I'm concerned. They are a bit small for clipping for my hands (i got big mits) but for the price I really cant complain. The action is solid and feel really great during a clip.

A+ pick for a first set of draws

These quickdraws are a great standby. Their solid on bolts and not too heavy for your standard sport lead route. The clipping is just right especially since you can get varied bone lengths. I've taken a few lead falls on mine and there is no deformation, just some lost paint. To climbed big walls I'd want a lighter set from BD or I'd just switch out the carabiners.

I love these things! The price is right and they perform just as good as ANYTHING out there...basically the other more expensive ones out there are just a tad lighter and may have slightly different bends on the biners. I liked 'em so much I just bought a second set. Black Daimond is my only choice for draws and biners.

These draws are flawless. A tad bit heavier than wired-gates, but that to be expected. However, I feel they are a bit sturdier than their lighter counterpart. A 'no-brainer' buy. This is my first rack, plus some other friends, and its a great starter.

i've never used quickdraws before, (i climbed a little back in the day, before they had these) but these are easy to use. i wish i had got the quickwire to save the weight though.

Great standard gear for any regular sport route. They are light and easy to use. The rubber insert keeps them steady for those long reaches.

I did trust it with my life ... so light and so effective.

Quickdraws are light, easy to use and serve their purpose well! Good work BD. Rubber insert does help to keep them straight for long reaches.

If you're starting to build a rack, it's hard to go wrong with a deal like this.

Pros: Good value. The straight-and-bent-gate combo is classic and makes for easier clipping. These draws are also not super heavy.

Cons: Dyneema runners are much more prone to spinning and twisting, increasing the likelihood of back-clipping. However, as long as you're careful and smart about your clips, this should not be a problem.

I own two sets with varying lengths of dogbones (for reducing rope drag on overhangs or slabs) and they've performed really well. Not the top of the market, not the bottom, a good middle-of-the-road draw that will catch your falls and help you build a great beginner/intermediate rack.

milli, using your rock climbing gear for anything but rock climbing is a really bad idea!!

Black Diamond Quicksilver Quickpack Quickdraws These quickdraws are great! Reliable, light, and easy. I love them and can rely on them for lead climbing. Need to get more of these soon.

So far these have done me well. I have used them to hold me at belay stations, save the bolts at the top of the route and just put the rope through these. They are just like any other quick draw to latch in a bolt. I do like the color a lot. other than that they do the job, I am still alive. They have served more purposes than just rock climbing also.

these quickdraws are great! much lighter compared to my other ones. bent gate makes easy clip in
