Metolius Master Cam

Good Cams

By Ranked #437 - Big Wall Climbing February 27, 2009

I've got the #1 and #2, and I like them. The action isn't as stiff as on C3s, which I prefer, and the unit is flexible without being floppy or having a bigass sheath on it. They place solidly, more solidly than TCU's, in my opinion, by virtue of having 4 lobes. Metolius reports the range to be exactly the same as TCUs, and Mastercams are only marginally heavier - a tradeoff I'll take for single stem flexibility and 4-lobe stability.
