  • Not all quickdraws are equal, and understanding what you need to look out for when purchasing your first set can be a confusing time for the aspiring sport climber.
    In this video we're taking a look at all the components that seperate quickdraws and my recommendations of what quickdraws I would recommend for those that want to have a taste of what the sport climbing world has to offer.

    Great tips, i always have solid gate for the bolt side to prevent nose hooks, and wire gate for the rope side, because i like the feeling of clipping a wire gate over a solid gate. All personal preference. Also nice to see you using the firefly, i love my firefly, saved me so much money over the years :)

      was wondering if anyone would ask about the firefly, but glad to see someone who recognizes the value in it rather than just saying "just get a bail biner". Ive just permanently got it on one of my spare draws and carry it to use if needed. Honestly I think its a great piece of gear.
      But 100% agree on that wiregate and solid gate department. i personally prefer clipping a wiregate in but I like the robust feeling of the solidgate as well so why not use both haha

      @@BeorOng yeah I’m not sure why more people don’t know about the firefly. Really expensive piece of kit but so worth it!

    My first quickdraws were the Mad Rock Concorde 6 pack. Ended up getting another pack shortly after. Light strong & durable. Great price usually too!

    I'm quite partial to the alpha sport.
    Ignore the weight.. delicious gate feel is what matters 😂

      My brother has the alpha sports... I must say I actually really do dig the alpha sports... im a single pitch climber for the most part anyway so the weight has never been that much of a problem

      Have several climbing stores with great variety around and I sometimes end up strolling there just to fiddle around with some gear and sometimes and up buying more "essential" gear.
