Well, folks, grab your harness and chalk up your hands because today I’m diving into a review of the Petzl Ange S Carabiners! These little clips have been my trusty companion on some recent climbing adventures, so strap in as I share my experiences.

Starting off, I’d say the Ange S Carabiner is like the James Bond of my climbing gear. Sleek, light, and oh so reliable. It’s as if they whispered sweet nothings to my gear rack and lightened the load without me realizing. If you’re a fan of cutting down on weight — and who isn’t when lugging gear up a crag — then these beauties might be worth a look.

Personal Experience: Picture this: I’m halfway up a tricky route, the kind that has you questioning your life choices while your hands desperately search for that next bolt. My heart racing, I reach for the Ange S, which by the way, snaps into those shiny Petzl bolts smoother than my morning cup of joe slides into my bloodstream. The MonoFil Keylock technology truly shines here, and clipping feels like the closest thing to a mid-route zen moment I’ll probably ever experience.

Some may argue that the smaller gate size might be a bit of a tight spot to handle with thicker gloves on colder climbs, but honestly, it wasn’t much of an issue for me. Maybe I’ve developed some thumb-ninja skills without realizing it?

Now, let’s talk price. These carabiners are definitely on the higher end, but think of it as an investment into your climbing future. After all, these things were designed with precise engineering aimed at longevity, which makes them worth considering if you’re in the market for durability and performance.

In terms of other climbers’ opinions, a few might claim they’re not a fan of the single wire gate, but I personally find it cuts down on the bulk while maintaining strength. Plus, who doesn’t love a bit of minimalism in their life?

I’d love to hear what you all think! Has anyone else here put the Ange S Carabiners to the test on some epic climbs? Do you have any interesting stories or maybe some tips for maximizing their potential? Share your tales of thrill—or spills—and let’s get the chatter going!
