Wild Country Friend Cams are one of the defining pieces of climbing protection, and for good reason. They’ve been part of crack racks since 1977, built around Wild Country’s 13.75° cam angle and refined through thousands of crack miles. The current version keeps that core feel intact, but updates the platform with a dual-axle design and a full size range from 0.4 to 4 for broad coverage across real climbing terrain.

In use, Friends stand out for the overlap in their ranges, the stability and versatility of the double-axle design, and the practical combination of a thumb loop with an extendable sling. That extendable 12mm Dyneema sling helps reduce drag in wandering cracks and can cut down on how many extra quickdraws you need on your harness. Add in hollow axles for a stronger, lighter build and polished, unanodized cam surfaces for extra grip on rock, and you get a piece that still earns its place the old-fashioned way: by working well when the placement matters.

Features

  • 13.75° cam angle, designed, perfected, and developed by Wild Country and tested in thousands of crack miles since 1977.
  • Dual axle design.
  • Double-axle Friends have become a market benchmark for stability, versatility, and reliability.
  • The only device on the market that combines the practicality of a thumb loop with an extendable sling.

Construction

  • Hollow axles: stronger and lighter, thanks to Wild Country’s original patented technology.
  • Unanodized, polished aluminum cam surfaces: softer metal means better friction when weighted, giving extra grip on rock.
  • New 12mm Dyneema extendable slings.

Benefits

  • Extendable slings reduce drag inside cracks and let you save room on your harness by cutting down the need for extra quickdraws.
  • Great overlap between ranges and a full size set from 0.4 to 4.
  • Offer protection in nearly any crack you’ll find out there.
