Pro for Motha

Post by enoch308 »

I would like to climb Motha at Roadside and try out some Tricams.
Can you tell me what sizes I might want -- or are the #1 - #2 camalots
really better?

I use a #3 camalot, a #2 camalot and a #1 camalot. That's about it.

I did this flake up at long wall (Too little too late) that I used the same cams... 3,2,1.

I wanted to call it "3,2,1 Contact". damn that was a cool show.

I think you can do it with all kinds of gear. Last time I did it, I think I used a brown tri-cam, .75 and 1 camalot.

I think I remember a .75 being important.

I used a few of the smaller Metolius 3 cams; yellow, red, and orange. As far as tri-cams, .5 - 2 probably.

I lead it the other day and used a 1 and 2 #2 camalots. But it seemed like alot more options were available as well.
