Wild Country Friend

Wild Country Friend brings a refined thumbloop-and-extendable-cord design that streamlines modern trad protection by cutting down on extra draws and rope drag. These climbing cams are built for confident placements in everything from compact cracks to wider features, with a smooth extension that helps keep placements stable as the rope moves. Updated Flow Cord construction and the proven double-axle platform also make racking and handling feel more fluid on lead.
