These are great for those who are visual when selecting gear,matching the crab to the same colour hex or cam makes learning the sizes a lot easier than if you had a plain old silver crab. They are made from a very hard wearing alloy and the colour finish stays on

brilliant starter kit !!

i bought this about 7 months ago and it's still staying strong , the harness is comfy with many gear loops (5), the belay device is the DMM bug which is a cracking piece of kit and fits most size ropes including half ropes.The chalk bag is bog standard but for that price what do you expect .Apart from the chalk bag it's brilliant.

Prowire Quick Draw 12cm 5 Pack

£55.00

Overall Rating (4.3 out of 5)

Reviewed By Alex, 07 Apr 2012

Good value and light.

You can spend a lot more on quickdraws to save a ridiculously small weight. A great performing option at a good price.

Excellent budget draws

I use these and their competitors, the Wild Country Wild Wires. Both are good draws but the Prowires have a significant edge in weight and I prefer the longer slings on them over those on the Wild Wires. The biners on the Prowires, though, feel smaller on the Prowires (even though they aren't) with the result that I prefer the feel of the Wild Wires when clipping. Much more of a personal preference though, and I'd take the weight loss any day.

However, given the choice I would purchase the Prowires. Much lighter, just as strong, and with some extra length (and much longer length options!) that really can help with rope drag on those longer trad routes. Unless you're exclusively climbing sport I'd definitely recommend getting a trad pack of these.

Pros: Light, cheap, long sling options.
Cons: None really. As with all wiregate draws the lock on the nose can sometimes catch when you're trying to unclip it from gear but this is a universal wiregate issue problem until you get to DMM Shields or Wild Country Heliums. Overall, they're a good buy.

Classic DMM quality!

My first set of quickdraws! It has been serving very well. I have used these during sports and ice climbing! No problems so far!

Wallnut Set 1-11 Anodised

Overall Rating (4 out of 5)

well thought out design

well DMM have done it again and brought out another well thought out product, although the coloured faces soon become battered and faded. The indentations are fantastic for those tricky placements where a pebble or something is intent on ruining the placement, but to be honest thats a few and far between situation in my experience.

Renegade Harness

£70.00

Overall Rating (5 out of 5)

Reviewed By Nicholas, 28 Apr 2012

Great all-round!

After trying on about 4 different harness' in Cotswold i decided on this one because it was the most comfortable. It has loads of gear loops to keep all of your gear, its pretty lightweight and also looks pretty nice too. Like many other harness' the zip-locks are fantastic and make it very quick to put on. I teach climbing sessions so its really useful being able to put it on so quickly, they don't feel as sturdy as double backs, but i'm sure they're safe.

The floating waist is also a great feature but sometimes a little stiff to move around. Overall a great harness!

A harness that does it all

I've used this harness for two years for a variety of climbing. Climbing wall, trad and sport, multi pitch, winter and alpine. Always comfortable, easy to put on and take off. The gear loops are well positioned keeping everything out of the way but easily accessible. A great all round harness, especially good for winter and alpine climbing.

Reviewed By Neil, 05 Apr 2011

Brilliant harness for all conditions

I've used the Pro version of the Renegade for over a year now in both summer and winter conditions, and absolutely love it. The Pro is the same design but features thread-back buckles instead of zip-lock.

The seven gear loops are laid out brilliantly, and I've yet to struggle for space to put gear on. Similarly I've not had any problems finding it again whilst climbing. The floating waist belt makes centralising the gear simple.

The padding makes the harness very comfortable on long routes, even at hanging belays.

I have no hesitation giving this harness five stars, and would highly recommend it to anyone getting into climbing.
