Almost as good as the offset Aliens

Metolius Offset Master Cam

Metolius Offset Master Cam

Rating for this product: 5 December 20, 2010

And probably more reliable!

I've been using these for awhile now - I have the 0/1 and 1/2
I can generally find a great placement for these even when an offset isn't necessary. I recommend buying one either to fill a gap in your "normal" rack or to double up on a similar sizes. Like the offset aliens, the master cam works in Pin scars and other weird pockets that other cams just can't. If you climb on California Granite, they are a must.

Don't like markers

Metolius Monster 10.2 mm Rope w/ Monster Marker

Metolius Monster 10.2 mm Rope w/ Monster Marker

Rating for this product: 3 December 23, 2009

Good Rope, but the "markers" create wear points because the sheath sticks out just a smudge higher than the rest of the rope. When the rope runs through an ATC, for example, after awhile the sheath gets worn down quicker around the markers than the rest of the rope.

Locking Biner that doesn't unlock

Black Diamond VaporLock Screwgate Carabiner

Black Diamond VaporLock Screwgate Carabiner

Rating for this product: 2 September 30, 2009

I bought three of these at beginning of summer, and after several trips to the mountains I had one lock up on me. I couldn't unscrew the gate to get it open. I had to wrestle with the thing for like 5 minutes. It only had issues with one biner, but i don't think I'd buy any more. I was really happy with it until that happened.
