[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you're after an entry level lanyard, with superior safety, with a bold style, and is also easy on the pocket book, you're in the right place!PROS*Clips New captive eye design allows the lanyard to have freedom of motion.The latch and clasp have been redesigned and no longer has the dual barrel-pin connectors. New depression along the spine allows for better hold and also help you get your thumb and index fingers lined up with the latch.Even lighter clip metals makes caring this lanyard around even lighter. Very fun coloring! The finish is also a semi gloss to satin, which makes it a little less slippery than usual.*LanyardIncreased amount of elastic gives it better performance and more resiliency over timeThe new nylon jacket holds tight to the inner core and actually helps improve the performanceThe lanyard width and length has been reduced which help makes it feel lighter and more manageable and less likely to get in the wayLike the new 2-tone orange and greay lanyard color scheme. If you are looking for yellow or black check out the Squids 3110.CONS Only concern is that there is not much transition between the main elastic of the lanyard to the loop ends that connect to the clips. This is not likely to affect the normal performance but perhaps in normal handeling of the lanyard or in storage, this might be something to be aware of.THOUGHTS AND WISHESClip anodizing (the color) seems easily scratched, but some may like showing that part off ;-)Check out my full review + pics + video on wordpress here: www.civilgear.wordpress.com
