The DMM Dragon Cams are top notch climbing cams with a massive range that allow you to make the most of every placement.
With increased holding power and reduced walking capabilities, the DMM Dragon Cams particularly excel in slick or soft rock types and in sub-optimal placements. Increased contact area with a raw aluminium finish and additional bite points are the hallmarks of DMM’s revolutionary TripleGrip cam lobes. These features combine to increase friction between the cam lobe and the rock it’s placed in, resulting in maximised holding power and minimised walking. Single stem, dual axle design gives the Dragons 360° flexibility and the greatest expansion range, increasing both performance in poorer placements and your chance of getting the right piece first time.
The hot forged thumb press improves ergonomics while reducing the chance of a fumble from gloved hands or pumped fingers, while the extendable sling cuts down on quickdraws needed to extend placements, significantly reducing weight on your harness. The design of the thumb press means that the strength of the Dragon suffers no compromise when the sling is extended. The Dragons low weight does not compromise its strength – they are rated to a huge 14kN from size 1 upward and the additional material in the lobes has improved their resistance to deformation.

Excellent product at fair price.
These are a classic for a reason. Came wrapped in a shoddy bit of paper that was all torn and looked like it had been used for fish and chip wrapping. Sort it out R43,R! I don’t want my precious cam getting damaged in the post before I even use it!
Admittedly I have limited experience with other cams, so can't compare much. Size is slightly different to friends which can be confusing if you're used to one or the other. These are lovely to use and confidence inspiring. Took a lob onto the blue one on a placement I wasn't 100% about and it didn't budge. Sling is a bit fiddly to use, and is rarely unextended, but means it's a nice length when racked, and with a bit of use you get quick at extending (I tend to "back-clip" the strand I want to unclip as this is quicker than removing the biner and then clipping the correct strand).

What an ace piece of kit! Certainly inspires confidence.
The sling is a great asset
