Head too wide, lobe shape poor

By Jacon Mayer Ranked #25 - Big Wall Climbing September 30, 2009

These are seriously inferior to Metolios Master Cams, and obviously even more inferior to Aliens.

Why? Because the head is suuuper wide. That means it won't fit in those tiny pockets it is designed for.

Also, the lobe shape is poor - not nearly bulbous enough (Master cams do this better, Aliens do it far better). So what, you say? It reduces the range of each cam, and makes the fit worse. I've seen these pop twice, which is scary. Never seen an Alien or a Master cam do that, and I've used the latter a lot more.

I love C4s but these kinda suck.
