Durable cam sets. A little heavier than the ultralights, but the price is right!

In my opinion, nobody makes better spring-loaded camming devices than Black Diamond. So, if you want to get into building trad anchors, go for some Black Diamond C4 cams. They’re strong, durable, and reliable.

Buying cams in sets offers a better deal than buying strictly as singles.

The 0.3-3 size range of BD cams is what we consider a "Standard Rack" in most places, specifically the Northeast. Black Diamond sells a full set of 0.3-3 kit, as well as smaller sets of 3 sizes.

The standard of modern camming devices. Reliable, durable, trustworthy, and undeniably good looking. I can tell you from first hand experience, as you fly 20' through the air, you're going to be glad your last piece was a C4.
