What the hell? Have y'all ever whipped on a horizontally placed forged? I have not and that's why I'm still around.

 

IF I think the route requires it I'll bring otherwise... PLus tri cams are good and cheap.

 

I cant count too many times when I needed a cam that large in a horizontal...........

 

I've yet to need one. That's all.

Don't get me started on the Tri cams again!

And this whole time I thought Tri Cams sucked, when it's really a lack of huevos on my part. I'll remember to breathe deeply as I place that next Tri Cam into the placement that "nothing else will fit in".

If that makes you feel better. I'm not getting on some "I am tough" kick at all. Just stating my thoughts.

 

If you disagree good for you. Make some comments and arguments and whatever. I'm not necessarily going to argue against them with prejudice.

 

Carry your camalot and I will carry my friends. Is one better than the other if they both work? No.

or a couple of ice routes where tr cam with beak in the ice and cam on the rock is the belay. slcd's just rip out.

 

While doing my homework on Vicuna Beach I came across the hugest recommended ticklist I've ever seen. Check it out:http://bivouac.com/UsrPg.asp?UsrId=30

Tri cams work. So do heavy ass weighalots aka camalots.

 

Many times a different brand will work in the same place.

 

It's like being a dude that fixes up a honda civic with racing pipes thiking he is better off than somebody in a turbo audi. Who cares?
