Wild Country Zero Friends Cams

New Zeros take cam sizes smaller than has ever been possible. Six sizes starting at a minuscule 0.22" (5.5mm). This ultra-small cam dimension is achieved by using a new, compact, Direct Loading AxleTM which combines termination and axle into one unit, allowing the cams to operate without the hindrance of bulky conventional assembly.  New technology was developed to provide climbers with total stem flexibility. This was achieved with a new, FlexistemTM system which overlays the wire rope stem. This allows flexibility up to the base of the cam-head, minimizing the possibility of levering the cams out of shallow seams.  Flexibility is of limited use without control, and the GuidedTriggerTM system achieves positive directional control of the cams through an innovative combination of flexible springs and guides which overlay the stainless steel wire rope stem. These prevent 'bowing' as the trigger is retracted, yet allow individual manipulation of the cams in restricted placements.  To complete the design of these exceptional micro-cams, they were subjected to a rigorous test regime. Zeros are small, but not too small for the beefy, taped hands of a crack-climber. Zeros are color coded for fumble-free racking. Finally, Zeros are fitted with an ultra-light color coded 10mm DyneemaTM sling which is bar-tacked in a double loop for fast extending when required.  These new technologies, reducing components, re-evaluating and going beyond the boundaries of current camming technology, have created a range of cams which are lighter and more compact than anything previously imagined. Sizes Z1 through Z3 are all lighter than most standard biners. The complete set (6 pieces) weighs 9.5oz (268gm)--little more than a single Technical Friend.
