Purchase this core Wild Country Friend Set containing sizes 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2 and 3 and make a saving on these excellent climbing cams.
The Wild Country Friend is now faster, smoother, lighter in use and superbly finished, and could well be the most complete climbing cam available. The Friend is the original iconic camming device, but updated and lighter than ever, this new version gives you a wealth of excellent new design features, whilst managing to retain the trust that has been built with years of climbing.
Now built with a twin axle, but still maintaining the 13.75 constant cam angle, the performance of this cam is simply enhanced. The hollow axles have enabled the reduction in weight, and the extendable slings mean you can cut down on the number of quickdraws on your rack. Just a few of the excellent new features this new Friend has to offer!
Set includes 6 cams - sizes 0.4, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2 and 3

Haven't actually had a chance to use these in anger yet, mainly due to work and recent weather, but I've had a good fiddle about with them and I can't see anything wrong. Only reason they get 4 and not 5 stars is the spring tension, which is higher and feels more reassuring in my Metolius master-cams, minor point but there we are.
Smooth action, feel bomber in placements. Lighter than my dragons but slightly shorter extendable slings... both are excellent cams. Pity the Friends don't go down to 0.3 (got a black totem instead). Would recommend these or dragons to any trad climber.
