Media Review
I've always been a twistlock fan, but am often frustrated by the multiple awkward gyrations some require to twist, push and pull them open. The Orbit's opening mechanism, rotate the collar and pull the gate back, is simple and I could even easily do it in gloves. However, the Orbit, like every twistlock carabiner I've used, can freeze up, becoming inoperable in icy conditions. New for 2010, the Orbit Twist Lock sports a keylock nose, a nifty bit of sleekness that prevents ropes, cordage and wires from snagging.
