Deep Dive
Why We Like The DMM Dragon Cam Set
The DMM Dragon Cam Set is an exceptional climbing gear that offers several key enhancements for an improved climbing experience. One notable upgrade is the redesigned teeth, which provide significantly more friction on any type of rock. Extensive research and testing have resulted in sharper teeth, increased surface area, and a raw Alu finish, ensuring a reliable and secure grip. The teeth taper off at the optimal point, allowing for effortless placement in various crack sizes.
Additionally, the Dragon Cam has undergone other notable improvements. It now boasts enhanced torsional rigidity, providing increased stability and security when placed in horizontals. The new thumb press feature aids in easy and efficient cleaning, making it a practical choice for climbers. Furthermore, the extendable Dynatec sling reduces weight without compromising strength. The Dragon Cam retains its successful combination of a single stem and double axle design, offering optimal passive placement.
Product Details
The Dragon Cam Set is equipped with TripleGrip cam lobes featuring a raw alu finish, ensuring a solid grip on rocks. Its single stem with dual axle ensures both security and compatibility with larger sizes. The inclusion of an extendable Dynatec sling, coupled with the new thumb press mechanism, provides superior control. The set is available in finger-, hand-, and fist-sized options, catering to various crack dimensions and climbing preferences.
