Innacurate weight by Blue Ice

by anonymous on 03/5/2024
Pros
More durable than Mammut Contact slings
Cons
Actual weight is 19.6g
Familiarity
I’ve used it a few of times

If you are thinking of replacing your alpine draw slings with these, you should know that any weight reduction you expect to get won't be happening.

For reference, the BD dyneema 60cm slings weigh 20.2 grams on my scale and these weigh in at 19.6 - not the claimed 16 grams.

Otherwise they seem fine, if not a bit thick. But it is poor form from Blue Ice to state these are 16 grams.
