New Favorite Small Cams

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #19 - Big Wall Climbing June 6, 2011

I've been hanging onto all my Aliens, because I just never liked the other small cams available. You can't buy Aliens anymore, though. These new cams are great, because they have a similarly narrow head, they feel really solid, and they come in all the tiny sizes that Aliens did. They're also light and very easy to place (from a combination of good trigger action and shape). I'm relieved they came out with these, because I wasn't sure what I was going to do if my Aliens didn't last.
