MATERIALS AND METHODS FOR USE WITH CLIMBING CAMS

摘要

Provided are methods and devices for spring loaded camming device (SLCD) trigger retention and stabilization of cam retraction. Devices are described for use with camming devices in rock climbing to maintain cam lobes in a retracted position until placed. The devices aid in SLCD use, make installation of cams in cracks faster and easier, minimize gear entanglement, increase SLCD placement range, and make selection of SLCD size more intuitive for climbers during ascents.
