The Friend is the most advanced piece of gear on any climber’s rack. The new generation of cams still feature: the 13.75° cam angle, hollow double axles, and milled lobes for max holding power and minimal walking. The new Flow Cord, with a seamless core-mantle construction, allows smooth, resistance-free extension. The range now features a size 0.3 with double axles and the size 4 integrates a symmetrical spring loaded lobes locking mechanism. The key feature of Wild Country Friend is the combination of thumbloop and extendable cord. This design reduces the need for extra draws, minimizes rope drag, and lessens walking.
