Not to get into the best ascended debate, but what's the best carabiner for the ropeman 1?
 
Twist lock would be my 1st choice, then screw lock. Never a gated on anything where my life is on the line.

Right, def screw or twist lock, but I've also read where all rounded works better than some of the newer designs. Also didnt know if a certain shape worked better
 
I use a fully rounded Metolius Element with my Ropeman 1. It's large diameter helps (in my mind, at least) mitigate concerns over using an out-of-spec 8mm Oplux tether with the Ropeman.
