Neat, the Trango "Superfly" Lightweight biner is also the "lightest full-size biner in the world".

 

Weight: 30g

Major Axis: 24 kN

Minor Axis: 7 kN

Gate Open: 9 kN

Ah, but Foxy, you neglect to savor the fact that WC has made a 'keylock' biner.

What could be finer?

[Alpinfox]

yeah man, but its three grams... THREE GRAMS!!!!

 

I mean, with my light-and-fast=safety, hairball, alpine style, that could be the difference between life and death!

 

 

p.s. Don't I have a book of yours?

Nice design, but at $11 they won't be turning up in mass quantities on my rack.

Foxie's got it right.

 

At $7.50 , they ain't cheap but they ain't too high priced.

 

Also the Lightweight Wire Gate is only 2 grams more than the WC and priced at only $5.95. I have a bunch of these and I love them.

 

They carry them at Second Ascent in Ballard.

Yep, I think you do have my book.

You better give it back, or I'll never learn to read.

Well I never see you at Stoner Gardens anymore, I guess your home gym is working out for you?

 

Perhaps I could return your book at a pub club or sumfin?

Sounds good- it sounds like this weeks PC will be at the College Inn (notice my subtle strong-arm tactics). I probably won't show 'til late.

Check out both of these - the wild countrys are awesome - orderd up a dozen of them asap. The trango is sick light (smaller than the WC but not neutrino small) Mammut also has the same manufacturer for their version of the trango superfly -some company in Italy i think. Two biggest plusses for the WC are the wire gate AND rope radius - the ultralight is like the old standard bd light d!
