Draws for carrots 30-Sep-2014 At 1:04:12 PM sbm

Message

The last of my cheap black diamond biners disappeared somewhere, and now every draw I have is either wiregate or super skinny modern solid gate which can still lift off the carrot. Had to do a lot of creative rigging at Mt Boyce on the w/e.

However I have a big football of geniune Choinard oval gates of unknown vintage my uncle gave me. I was thinking about using them to make carrot draws as they might actually be safer.

Do any manufacturers actually still make biners phat enough for carrots and if so what do people recommend.

Start the vigorous and reasoned discussion.

(Someone will say "hurr durr just add Us or rings to the end of your quickdraws" but can we not go there for now, there's still a zillion routes in the Blueys which will have carrots for a while.)
