Why We Like The Wild Country Friend Cam Set 0.4, 0.5, 0.75
There's at least one cam in this Wild Country New Friend Set that would fit in a crack that suits our fingers perfectly. One might feel too small, and the other too large—or some other combination—but at least one will slide into a crack as perfectly as all four fingers. Given Wild Country was the first company to sell the original camming device, you can rest assured that they've had the longest to research an ideal construction.

Pro You Can Trust!
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
*Disclaimer - I work for the brand but this is my honest feedback as a climber. The Friends have been a stable and reliable addition to my rack that I have no complaints on. These hold well, place smoothly, and the extendable sling is killer! We've had very few of these come back with any sort of issues which leads me to not only trust them as a recommendation to others, but also when I'm the one on the sharp end.
