Great for easy clipping

DMM Eclipse Wire Gate Carabiner

Rating for this product: 5 October 7, 2008

For their size, these are pretty darn light and they clip like a dream. I'm not a ice climber, but I imagine these would be great for gloved hands.

Great edging, but....

Five Ten Anasazi Lace-Up 2 Climbing Shoe

Rating for this product: 3 October 7, 2008

Like the old pinky lace ups, these shoes edge with the best of them, but I have to ask: is the heel really redesigned? The pinkies had terrible heels and these don't seem any better to me. I absolutely love the shoe when it comes to power edging, but the heel has got to be over hauled for real.

Marmot Boulder T-Shirt - Long-Sleeve - Men's

Rating for this product: 3 October 7, 2008

A pretty nice shirt, but nothing special. The fit is a little baggy for my taste.

Love 'em

Mammut Moses Wire Gate Carabiner

Rating for this product: 5 October 7, 2008

My new favorite biner! Super light, and the bearing surface near the base is a little more substantial then the new BD equivalent. I'll be slowly adding these to my rack as needed. Although, I should note they are on the smaller side.

Awesome!

DMM Shield Quickdraw

Rating for this product: 5 July 6, 2006

The quickdraws are hard to touch. They are super lightweight, and I really like the action. I have heard some comment that the action is a little stiff, but I think it's right on. The only con is the price. If money is no object, or if they’re having a killer sale, I say go for it.

so-so

Black Diamond Superslacker Rope Bag - 1831 cu in

Rating for this product: 3 July 6, 2006

Nice tarp and easily holds my 10.2 plus draws. The only flaw I have found is in the strap. If you are hiking any distance, the strap is not very comfortable and will work loose if you have a heavy load. You can tie of the loose ends of the strap, but this is a pain in the neck when you want to make adjustments. Overall it’s okay, but I was hoping for a better product from BD. The Metolius or newer pack-like bags are a better choice from what I have seen.
