    A great option as a belay-carabiner. The triple action gate keeps things safe and relies less on human thought (screwing the gate closed every time). The internal wire keeps the carabiner from spinning and cross-loading while belaying (keeping you and your partner safe!). Overall a solid choice that emphasizes safety.
