exactly the piece I needed to fill the hole in my rack, and the crack as well!
flexible, strong and easy to place and remove! I'd trust my life to this gear!

One of my favorite cams
Z’s are my go to for smaller sizes. I love how they have the flexible stem but are still easy to place. Great piece of gear.

Lightest trad
Great gear. I just bought a rack of ultralights. Went down to Moab to climb some sandstone. Had a great trip, climbed and biked. Perfect trad rack.

The standard
Camalots. Used everywhere. They're the standard. Bought a couple extra for an upcoming climb, they always perform.

Best Micro Cams
I have a set of C4s 6-.3 and z4 0-.75. The Z4s are preferable to doubles of the C4s as they are thinner and fit into smaller cracks. It is nice to have the same sizing and color scheme between types of Cams so I am not doing brand conversion math while hanging from the crux. It is also nice to have a cam down to 0. While I would not want to take a huge whipper on it, it is invaluable for aid climbing and sometimes it is the only pro that will fit.

Great evolution of an idea.
I have the first style of the narrow head cam that has the mettal rings protecting the inner wire and adding stiffness. This rubberized solution is so much better. The whole cam is lighter, smoother and sexier. Well made and engineered. Keep up the good work BD.

Great Pro for Small Cracks
These little guys pack a big punch. Their flexible for horizontal placements, but sturdy enough in the stem for slotting into narrow vertical placement as well. Plus they weigh next to nothing!

Lacking durability
Was psyched when these babies came out but have already had trigger wires on two cams tear. I’ve been looking for ways to repair and it seems BD doesn’t offer kits and I’ve read they won’t repair if you send them in. These cams have only been out for a few years, why is there so much info on trying to fix the cables with a quick google search? X4’s are still going strong!
