By combining a bent gate and ergonomic rounded shape, Petzl came up with an easy-clipping carabiner that appeals to both newcomers and guides. The asymmetrical, bent-gate Spirit clips into ropes easily, even with a gate shorter than many oval carabiners. Petzl's Keylock System creates reduces snags between the body and gate, so you can add protection quickly with fewer fumbles.

It is really nice looking.
I have to be honest I don't climb but I was $5 away from having free shipping and shipping was like $7, so this is my beautiful free carabiner. I liked the look of it online and it looks smart on my pack, so far I have hooked a cap to my pack and it held up!!! ha next a Nalgene bottle.

Best 'Draw biner out there
For durability ability and ease of clipping, the Spirits are excellent. They are solid, clean and they last a while. I highly recommend!

Good product delivers as expected
Not sure if it's made of a different metal, but feels lighter than my older Petzl carabiner. Anodize doesn't last long. One weekend climb and it had lots of scuffs, but who cares as long as it does its job.
