Comments about Black Diamond FreeWire Quickdraw - 12 cm:

I got about 12 and am totally satisfied with them. The draws are light but still strong. I don't even notice or struggle while clipping.

I also really like the fact they use nylon dogbones instead of the other stuff, they feel much beefier and stronger.

My only complaint is that the orange biner does scratch really easy.

great product.lightweight.easy to clip. i like the rubber that makes the rope biner more stable so it does not flip or turn to weird angles. only cons is that it would be nice if the rope binner was bent gate.but not even a problem.just x-mas wish :)

Big Bang for Your Buck

By Blackwolf from Estes Park, CO on 6/30/2007

Pros:

Simple

Cons:

Stiff Gate

Best Uses:

Outdoor climbing, Sport climbing

Describe Yourself:

Casual/ Recreational

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Black Diamond FreeWire Quickdraw - 12 cm:

The bright orange color and strong BD wiregates are a wonderful combo. To complete a sport rack I included ten of these with a few runners. It's quite assuring to fly by one of these in a large fall and find everything in good shape afterwards. First set of wiregates though, so I'm finding the gates a bit harder to open. Love the price!

Comments about Black Diamond FreeWire Quickdraw - 12 cm:

I liked these quick draws. They are great for the price. I think the reason I like them a lot is because I already use the same black diamond carabiners on my trad rack's slings, so it is really easy to use them for sport too - I am already use to clipping the rope into them etc...
