Great size. Great for controlled environments. If needed in a hurry tho I'm not sure it would be my first choice...to many steps, but great for someone who wants that extra safety. Definitely nice to use to keep things organized

The best.
Best for rappelling, best for belaying, best for protection from crossloads. A mammut must-have.

It's a carabiner
The construction on this carabiner is on par with other major branded carabiners and the size/shape is also on par. The thing I enjoy most about it is that it has the retainer that keeps it oriented correctly. This can be a pain in the rear at times if you're clipping in and out repeatedly, but it's also a good reminder to screw your gate closed when clipping in as the retainer won't close or function until you're completely screwed closed on your gate. Overall it's a great carabiner and helps on many fronts when climbing. This is especially helpful at preventing cross-loading while belaying someone.
