Petzl's ANGE L is the next step up for those who prefer wire gate carabiners for shibari.  Many folks like wire gate carabiners because they are non-locking and allow uplines to be quickly clipped in rather than pulled through.  The biggest compromise is that wire gate carabiners typically have a hooked nose that can potentially catch on your rope.

The ANGE L has a keylock nose that won't hang on your rope and uses a small single rod in place of the typical wire closure.  We offer this carabiner because it combines the clip-in functionality of a wire gate with the benefits of a key lock closure.

From Petzl's website:
  • Very lightweight, standard size carabiner
  • Carabiner size and strength-to-weight ratio are optimized due to the H-shaped cross-section
  • Easy to clip and unclip:
  • MonoFil gate opens and closes smoothly and offers a much longer lifetime compared to traditional wire gate carabiners; the wire gate is inset within the frame, reducing the chance of it rubbing
  • Keylock system is designed to avoid snagging on gear loop, rope, or webbing
  • Flat carabiner spine provides stability when holding it in your hand or pinch clipping
  • Wide contact surface for better rope glide and reduced wear
  • Certification(s): CE EN 12275 type B, UIAA, UKCA
