I'm not sure what kind (brands/models) of shackles seized up and would not release, back in the days when they got popular with kiters, the first time around.
I started kiting shortly after that time, and was warned over and over again, to never ever use a shackle.
I have looked at good quality shackles many times since then, and was not able to see why they failed.
But the stories of many broken bones and fractured skulls, kept me from using one.
