How difficult is the clasp?  I typically dive with 7mm gloves for most
of the year then switch to 5mm in about august when the bottom temp is
warmer.  I've seen ones with a swivel for a clasp.  A friend has one of
these but he's frequently fought with it, as the swivel sometimes isn't
easy to open when sand is involved.  He's since taken out the ball
bearing so the swivel turns easier but now doesn't lock quite as well.

Thanks,
Art.

	Hello Art 

	Ive done some climbing in the days before i took on scuba and
thought that
	you might like to know that there are locking carabiners
available to
	prevent accidental opening.  And i have also used them to secure
certain
	things to my BC when needed.  Black Mountain makes them with the
highest
	weight tolerances. Have a good day

	Matt
