With two wiregate carabiners and an ultralight Dyneema sling, the DMM Phantom Wire Gate Quickdraw takes on any rock or ice pitch you encounter. This 2-ounce quickdraw provides easy clipping from a sketchy stance, and its burly I-beam construction provides 23kN of strength if you blow it. Neither the Phantom Wire Gate Quickdraw's wire gates or the Dyneema sling will freeze in cold weather, which makes this a great choice for winter use.

I picked up ten of these and did not regret it. They are somewhat small and very light to rack onto your harness, which is nice for long climbs. Proved to hold up on my first big whipper so I'm happy! Only complaint I have is that neither carabiner has a smooth nose to run the rope over. If you clip wrong in a tight spot and need to unclip it and adjust, it will most likely add a few seconds of finagling the rope to get it out of the carabiner. It also makes cleaning a little more cumbersome. If this is a feature you need look at the DMM Shield for almost double the price of the Phantom. For someone looking to get into bolted routes and wants a good strong draw that won't break the bank, these will do the trick!

I've been using the Phantom quickdraws for years. They hold up well to repeated abuse in all conditions. Super light. Excellent craftsmanship. No problems clipping, even with gloved hands. Expensive, but you get what you pay for: quality.

Light and smooth clipping. I've been using these for a few years and they are fantastic. I use them on every multipitch trip I take. ... did I mention light? Yeah, they are great!

1 DMM Phantom QD for $15.92 equals to 2 DMM Phantom wiregate ultralight binners for $7.96 each + a free 12cm Dyneema dogbone. Sweet deal!

super smooth. super light. carabiners are kinda small but no where near as small as those mad rock shits. the gates are also stiff. not too stiff, but stiff enough. just a perfect amount of everything. i got 6 12cm for my friend and he got 6 18 cm and its a perfect sport rack. they will send you a ups box and you'll pick it up off your front porch and you'll think they sent you an empty box.

Its a great quick draw, its super light, looks nice and feel good in your hand. I have some black diamond quick draws and they're good but these take it to the next level.
