Look on the rack of most experienced trad climbers and you are almost certain to see an
assortment of Tricams. Most climbers agree that visiting the Gunks without multiples of
pink through purple is a serious mistake. These wondrous pieces of pro can be used either
as cams or nuts and often work where nothing else fi ts. Tricams are ideal in horizontal
cracks, pockets, and shallow vertical cracks. The larger sizes are an affordable way to
augment a rack of cams and are ideal for belay anchors due to their high strength and light
weight. Tricams can also be placed in icy cracks where regular cams do not work.
Updated for 2013! Our engineers recently spent some time working on one of the ageold
questions with the Tricam ? how to stiffen the sling without impeding its ability to
engage the camming action. After much experimenting, we rested on the simple solution
of carrying the inner band of webbing further towards the head and using a new stitch
pattern. The result is a naturally stiffer sling that makes one-handed placements easier, but
still engages the cam in active mode and will even increase durability over sharp edges
with the additional layer of material.
