For the weight watchers

By dha4782213 Ranked #48 - Big Wall Climbing September 14, 2011

When I find myself trying to reduce weight on easier accents I turn to the Rockcentrics. I find when I can take the little extra care to look for the best hex placements I can eliminate most cams off my rack. I do not suggest doing this on routes that you may find difficult, but works well for mountaineering ascents where you want protection. With the curves along each of the placement sides the seem to slide into place without effort. Most of these fit in cracks large enough to get your hand into therefore eliminating the need for wires. The Dyneema slings in my experience tend to help keep the pieces in the wall despite rope drag. Overall I am very happy with these pieces when I am trying to reduce the weight of my rack.
