Why We Like The Wild Country Friend Cam Set #0.4-3
This Friend Cam Set includes every single Wild Country camming device for a complete single trad rack for rock climbing. Given Wild Country was the first company to sell the original camming device, you can rest assured that they've had the longest to research an ideal construction. The 13.75° camming angle is the ideal angle for secure placing and easy cleaning, and the high-friction faces keep the cam positioned exactly how you want it.

These are great cams that are lightweight, and super bomber. The extendable sling is a huge winner, and I love them. This pack also makes them great for building your first rack!

Best All Around Cams Out There
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
I’ve only ever used C4s and Dragons. I had never owned any WC gear. So when it was time to buy some new gear, I started reading up on all the newer cams. I kept coming back to the updated friends. Thicker Machined lobes, more bite, extendable slings, etc. So I decided to try these (plus they were on sale lol). I bought a set, and after using them for a few weekends, I bought a second set… and a set of Zero Friends too. I love them. I do like the extendable slings on them, that’s a nice touch. But I mainly just like how sturdy these things feel in my hand, and how they stick in placements. These things seem to stay put a little better than my old C4s or Dragons. The thick lobes are also confidence inspiring. These new Friends seem like a combination of the best features of the C4s and Dragons. I’ve taken a few big falls on sketchy placements, and these held without any issues. Buy with confidence ! On a side note, these cams are great looking too. Lol. I know that doesn’t really matter…but it doesn’t hurt either.
