Black Diamond quickdraws
Black Diamond Quickdraws: performance and reliability
Designed to meet the demands of modern climbing, the climbing quickdraws from Black Diamond combine lightness, durability and ergonomic design. The HotForge Hybrid Quickdraw and HotWire Quickdraw models stand out thanks to the Straitjacket technology, an ingenious system that keeps the lower carabiner perfectly aligned for smooth clipping. This stability enhances clipping efficiency, prevents unwanted twisting and minimises premature wear on the sling: a real advantage whether sport climbing, multi-pitching or mountaineering.
