Let's be honest, when your friends have Friends, that just means more gear for you when you take the lead, which makes the Wild Country Friend Cam Set #0.4 - 3 the perfect gift to give yourself or the budding trad climber in your life. Whether you need to kick start your rack or simply need to double up on common sizes, this cam set is perfect to ensure that when you get on the sharp end, you won't end up running out of gear halfway to the chains. A single stem, double-axle design is easy to handle and easier to place when you're about to pump off of the wall, and the 12mm extendable Dyneema sling makes eliminating rope drag a breeze. Wild Country also built the lobes to be wider, giving you more secure placements and they added a hollow axle design, reducing weight so that you can carry enough gear to actually make the climb feel safe. With six pieces of active protection straight from the folks who constructed the original camming device, this is one rack of cams that belongs on everyone's harness.
