Mission
Description
Weighing in at just 25 g, the Mission is one of the lightest carabiners in its class. Despite its minimal weight, the Mission is very robust with breaking strength values of 23-8-7 kN. This has been made possible by combining shape and functionality and removing any excesses. The large gate opening of 20 mm exceeds that of many larger carabiners and provides excellent clipping comfort. The ideal carabiner for alpine tours where material weight reduction and maximum safety reserves are essential.

Looking like a prop off the set of Tron, with its futuristic I-beam “pockets” (seven in all) along the body, the Mission came in just one gram heavier than the lightest-inreview Cypher Mydas. This biner delivers amazing utility for its weight, thanks to its exaggerated trapezoid shape and deep, wide rope cradle—especially given the biner’s medium-range size. The “pocket” design contributed favorably to handling, since you can get slightly better purchase on the ridges between the holes than with a homogenous I-beam. The gate opening, as I measured it, fell in the middle range for the review—a nice, utilitarian size—while the gate itself had solid, nearperfect spring-back. The Mission is a very versatile biner, great for onsight cragging but with the size and lightness to deliver in the mountain arena.
