Great Price
This active protection is very easy to place with the use of thumb and one finger. Cams grip the rock well and when placed properly you know its going to hold.
Ultra Nice!
These are my first set of cams, and I also purchased the TCU 4pk set as well. I all my cams 30% from Altrec, wich turned into 2 free cams for the money. The range of each cam is a little less than the C4s, so there are a few more cams to cover the range.. but this allows for extra cams on the harness for other placements. Combined with several essential C4s, it's the perfect rack.
GREAT PRICE, GREAT CAM
An essential range package, whether to use as a base for your rack or as a second. As mentioned in the description "the U-shaped... body provides... unparalleled control during placement and retraction." In laymen terms, you can pull the trigger back with only one finger on the outside of the U or the middle, unlike single stem cams (two finger min). It's real nice if you're in a weird positions trying to finagle it into or out of place. No plastic parts either (i.e. trigger), which means more durable. They're perfect for a normal parallel crack, but I'd recommend C3s for anything smaller than blue for the narrow head and strength. Did I mention they're light (for a cam)?
