 Re: Types of Biners you use.
I voted too, I climb on auto lock and rig with screw gate.
Many might debate the rigging with screw gate saying often climbers forget to screw the gate closed, too true, but not me however many times when a contract climber comes in they dont bother and I have to watch like a hawk.
I like to use screw gate coz they take more shit, simple. If they get belted around a pair of pliers on the ground gets them undone, but the autolocks gates just break, spring action goes etc ... nowhere near as tough.
I rig with Omega 72kn screw gate biners, I use slings so if a section clobbers the trunk etc often it's the sling not the biner copping the belting, I dont tend to have a biner in the eye of my lowering rope except for smaller stuff. |
