Rated 4 stars by Rock & Ice Magazine, January 2007.

Now you can easily attach and retrieve carabiners and quickdraws instantly with the new SUPERCLIP. Weighs less than 2 ounces. Made from stainless spring steel, the Superclip is built to last. The innovative design holds virtually any standard size carabiner in the open position for attachment to an anchor or rope.



To use, simply attach it to any standard extension pole then push a carabiner into the superclip. It will now hold your carabiner open for attachment to an anchor or rope. To retrieve your carabiner or quickdraw, simply position superclip under the carabiner or quickdraw and push up to engage. Patent pending.

Review by Shredder

My Idea of a tool is to make it as basic as possible and the Superclip was designed this way. Not much to go wrong here and you can do alot with it. For one, it clips and unclips any carabiner, standard or wire, D or oval.

2 you can do the rope trick to connect a rope to a hanging biner.

3 And for those of you in need of help reaching to set a nut or a cam, then you have found the ultimate cheater/survival tool. For those of you who use BD cams, the cam slips right in, flip an accessory cord on the trigger to pull on the trigger and use the Superclip to reach that unreachable crack. This can be done with many cams and even nuts.

4 Canyoneering can be very dangerous and the Superclip can save your life. Use it with a BD hook, slip the hook in the Superclip and connect a rope to the hook. Use the superclip to reach up to a crack or hole for hooking yourself out of a bad situation.

danielKGreat!

Voted 5/5

I can stick and unstick any biner, wire gate or standard gate with ease. Great cheater tool. It will even hold some of my cams and nuts for hard placements.
