First set of quickdraws

Has anyone used outdoorplay.com? I found a set I would like and they are the cheapest there but have never heard of this site. Is it legit? |

Mad Rock Concorde Express Set are the cheapest you can find, and have super good reviews. I love my set and they get the job done in a lightweight fashion. Check out different sites like Backcountry.com, Campsaver.com, SierraTradingPost.com, etc. If any of them have a sale on climbing gear, snag the draws and rob 'em!! |

I got a rack of 12 mad rock concorde QuickDraws for $8 a piece and they are totally bomber. https://www.backcountry.com/mad-rock-concorde-express-quickdraw-set-6-pack |

Ended up ordering 10 petzl djinns just now during the Backcountry sale. $120 for 10 with free shipping. Best price I'd seen so I jumped on them. Thanks all for the input and discussion. Looking forward to getting them to use this summer. |

I've climbed on Petzl Spirits and those are the only ones I like better, but they're also so expensive- I don't want a set if quickdraws that cost as much as my harness. The Madrock Concordes are cheap, with a nice spring action and feel, and also durable- they've seen sport and trad whips and are holding up great. They are snaggy in bolts when cleaning, but really, I don't care. In sport, that's a problem for when you're done climbing |
