Camp Tricam N.7

When you observe what the wizards of traditional climbing routes have with them, you will surely notice a good selection of tricams. These extraordinary devices can be used both as active protection camming devices and as passive protection chocks, often functioning where the placement of another device is not possible. They are ideal for horizontal rock cracks, in holes, in deep vertical rock fissures, and, unlike Friends, also in icy cracks. Furthermore, due to their high resistance and lightweight design, they can be used as anchors in resting positions. The larger sizes allow for an expansion of the Friend range at moderate costs. Designers have found, after careful assessments and numerous trials, the system to naturally stiffen the tricam sling, thereby facilitating the positioning of the devices (especially with one hand) without compromising their function as active protection. How? Quite simply, by extending the triple-layer sling and attaching it to the tricam head with a new stitching pattern. This way, the sling near the head is not only stiffer but also more resistant to sharp edges.
