Climbing Cams
If the craggy rockfaces are your cup of tea, the craggier the better, then a set of climbing cams should be integral to your equipment. A camming unit or device grab the rock in different placements, offering protection to the climber.
Choose from the 10 Best Climbing Cams, available right here, at the best prices.
Over the years, the camming unit has become significantly lighter with almost no loss in efficiency and efficacy. The right cams will be able to hold significant falls and act as bomb anchors in the rockface, a smaller one might not be able to do so. Please be guided by an expert on the use of the camming devices. While most cams come in a standard length, certain cams come with the option of an extendable one, if required to reduce the number of quickdraws. Usually the cams are color coded for different sizes, making it just that much easier in the middle of a climb.So go right ahead and choose the set best suited to you!
