Why We Like The Black Diamond HotForge Hybrid Quickdraw Quickpack
Black Diamond's collection of quickdraws consists of draws with solid-gated or wire-gated carabiners, but the HotForge Hybrid Quickdraw is the only draw designed with solid and wire gates, and this Quickpack includes a set of six. The rope-clipping side is styled bright and colorful to act as a visual indicator that comes in handy when we're cruxing out and desperately searching for a solid clipping stance. The stiff, burly dogbone is easy to grab so you can take and suss out moves, and a StraitJacket stabilizes the rope-clipping carabiner for even easier clipping.

Simple, strong, brightly colored.
These heavy duty draws in bright pink stick out against snow and rock alike. From mittened hands clipping pickets on Denali’s autobahn, to little hands as I teach my kids to sport climb, these slightly oversized ‘biners remains easy to operate and hard to lose.

“Hotter Than My Last Tinder Date, and Way More Reliable”
If James Bond were a piece of climbing gear, he’d be the Black Diamond HotForge Quickdraw — smooth, strong, and always ready to catch you when things get dicey. This thing clips like butter on a hot pan. I swear, I’ve had faster and cleaner clips with the HotForge than I’ve had ordering coffee. The wiregate on the rope side is so snappy it makes me feel like a pro, even when I’m just hangdogging two bolts up and questioning my life choices. And can we talk about the dogbone? That thing is beefy in all the right ways. Thick enough to grab when I’m doing the “strategic resting” move (read: panic grabbing), but still light enough to not make me weep over pack weight. Plus, the color-coded carabiners make it idiot-proof — which is great, because sometimes my brain leaves the chat around bolt 6. In short, the HotForge Quickdraw is the friend that never bails, never judges, and always looks good doing it. 10/10 would trust it with my life — and I do, repeatedly.

Great all purpose draws
I have been a climber for more than 40 years. I mostly sport climb these days and am constantly stocking up on these draws. They are light, easy to clip, and reasonably priced. They fulfill all my climbing needs without breaking the bank. Plus, who can resist the blingy pink carabiners? A little style never hurts.

The perfect sport draw
Over the years I've owned several different types of sport draws—these are my favorite. The gates have a pleasingly certain action, the colors are bright enough to spot easily on the wall, and the dog bones are perfectly taut.
