"Awesome, lightweight, functional, just buy some!" 06/26/11

you can never have enough carabiners. I love trying all different brands to see which I prefer. Black Diamond always seems to take the top. These are great lightweight straight gates that can be used for just about anything.

"Great multi use biner" 12/06/10

These were my first non locking biners and I've always loved them. Though I don't use them as much as I used to, these work well for use in building anchors and running the rope through when you use 3 (though there are other carabiners that will work better for this) for trad and alpine I now have wiregates that have replaced these for anchor setups however. the positirons do still have place on my rack however. Strangely enough, I find that they work very well as racking biners for nuts and hexes. I've tried wiregate ovals, but so far I keep puttin my nuts back on the positrons. I also use one for my chalk bag.but most of the time, i'd recommend getting a wiregate instead of this biner.

"If you're considering, push the button" 09/25/09

They are the absolute best, durable, SNAG FREE biner you can buy. Easy operation, single handed friendly, and the colors I've chosen coorespond with the length of my bones so I don't have to think a lot while en-route. Other colors are yellow, brown and blue.

Bought these to make quickdraws out of and it was the right choice. They clip great in bolts and are very smooth.
