The bent gate version of the classic sport climbing biner, the Shadow, normally forms the rope clipping end of the quickdraw. We knew the clipping action had to be good so we made sure the curve of the gate was just right, allowing the rope to be pressed into the biner with the minimum of fuss. The inside of the biner also has a deep basket to ensure that the rope is guided towards the spine for added safety. The Shadow is completely anodised to help combat corrosion & prolong life in hot, damp or salty environments.
