The Black Diamond Hoodwire Quickdraw features an innovative hot-forged carabiner on top and lightweight HotWire biner on bottom. The Black Diamond HoodWire Quickdraw retains the strong keylock nose with a lightweight wire gate, however the hooded nose prevents snagging when removing gear and provides a clean gate with no flutter issues. The Hoodwire gate is also able to resist freezing in alpine conditions. The 10 mm dogbone sling provides a light and strong connection between the biners while the rubber Straitjacket tadpole insert ensures that the Hotwire stays in the optimal clipping position.
