Good quickdraw, with one problem

Petzl Express Quickdraw Sling

Rating for this product: 2 January 9, 2008

This is the first time I've ordered Petzl slings, in the past I've always used Black Diamond. The sling itself seems strong, but the "string webbing protector which keeps carabiners aligned with their strongest axis" mentioned above is attached to the sling with only a thin piece of rubber (as in 2mm, if that) , which is not nearly as strong as what you get on a similar BD sling, where they integrate it into the hole the 'biner goes into. I had one break off just by getting caught on a clip in my bag! I finally just took them off. The slings are, I'm sure, just fine for climbing, but I'll be ordering BD in the future.

Decent sling with one flaw

Petzl Express Quickdraw Sling

Rating for this product: 2 January 9, 2008

I like the sling, but have to disagree with the other reviewers about the rubber part that holds your 'biner in place. It's attached to the sling with a tiny (about 2mm) piece of rubber, I broke one when it got caught on a clip in my bag. Other than that it seems okay, but I'll stick with the slings with the integrated rubber from BD in the future.
