Gear We Like: Omega Pacific Dash Biners

The Dash, which was introduced in 2009 and is named after the late Micah Dash, isn't the lightest or smallest biner on the market, but I find it the easiest to handle of all the mini-biners I've tried. Key to this is the Infinity gate, introduced this past summer on several Omega Pacific biners. The gate is pinched in the middle to create an hourglass shape (or inifinity symbol), which provides a sweet-spot for grasping the biner with your thumb or forefinger when you're clipping or fumbling for gear on your rack.
