Product Reviews ...

The Black Diamond Oval Biner is excellent value, with consisten webbing and runner quality. Big wall vets swear by Ovals since their smooth shape prevents carabiner shift when easing into dicey placements.



Perfect all-around clip and not too pricy!
I use these things kayaking, hiking, camping, everything! The oval is the very nicest biner to hold onto tightly, and for that purpose I use these for my rope ascents together with the Petzl tibloc ascender. They are super durable, and rather bulky so you know you're not going to kill them using them for somewhat stupid things (lifting an engine out of a Ford Escort for example). Great basic biner.


order
Very fiendly staff and super easy to order and get updates on orders. Will order many times in the future from you foks. Thanks for making it so easy.


Oval, the only way to go!
I own a ton of these! Doesn't matter whether I'm clipping gear to a raft on a river trip, securing a load to the top of my car, or racking up for a long day of Trad climbing, the Oval biner is always totally handy.
