smaller sizes = good

By Ranked #546 - Big Wall Climbing October 22, 2009

As others have said, the quality on these is superb. They look/feel solid and the action is a little stiff, but feels right...until you break out the #5 or #6. Then things get wobbly. Especially with the #6. It's kinda comical or cartoon like when you reach up to place it, pull the trigger, and it flops to the right. You re-adjust, pull again...and it flops to the left. Think trying to push like polls of a magnet together. It seems like this is due to the length of the stem.The #1 to #4 feel great, so I would just go with the smaller sizes of these cams. I only have #1-#6, so I don't know about the 0 sizes, but they should be fine if they're anything like #1-3.
