Simond Spider Dyneema® Quickdraw

You just can not find a draw this good for this price anywhere else. I have looked. My rack also has some more expensive BD draws which the Simonds out perform in clipping and cleaning.

I'm not a climber, but will be using this product as an improvement to a tree-stand safety harness for deer hunting. It's very well made, extremely strong and should serve my purpose well.

I ran across the Simond Spyder biners on [...]5 or 6 years ago when I was getting some gear for a trip out to J-Tree and Yosemite. They were just some (slightly used) extra's in a large lot of big Cams. At the time most of my non-oval biners were petzl spirits because I can't stand fighting to get biners off in tricky situations (when the grooves on reg biners want to catch on everything). The first time I used them I couldn't believe they weren't the hottest selling biners on the market. I let my climing buddies try them and they all sneak off with them when they get a chance... ;o)They are absolutely incredible! Even spirits are a pain for egress compared to these things. they are simply incredible - guarantee if you try them you will love 'em. Finding them was my issue, and I just bought 25 yes that's right 25 of these draws because Sierra's price on these is so incredible.

clips really well especially compared to other draw sets that i have used: lucky and petzl. why they're not in all climbing shops is a mystery to me but i would definitely recommend these to anyone who can afford spending a little more than the minimum.

I've had these for a few years and for the most part I really like them. I've only had one issue: a couple months ago I hung these draws on a route which my friend was TRing. He fell and in trying to get back on the climb he grabbed for one of these draws (which was hanging unclipped on a bolt), but because he was swinging his hand slipped and he got a gash on his palm from the sharp notchless gate. The cut was deep enough that he lost a few days of climbing. It's a pretty unlikely sequence of events so I still like and use these draws, but will look for a less sharp point when it's time to replace them.
