The much anticipated Dragon Cams from DMM have arrived in all three V12 shops; Llanberis, Liverpool and Stoke.
Breakthroughs in climbing hardware don’t come along every day, but the Dragon Cam is definitely one of those moments.
Si Panton used the cams over the weekend when he went out winter climbing with DMM gear designer Streaky Desroy:
“I went up to Clogwyn Du on Saturday with Streaky and he pulled a selection of the Dragon Cams out of his bag and we used them for the rest of the day. I was amazed at how light they were, but also how easy they were to use, even with mountaineering gloves on.”
“I’ve never come across a cam that was so easy to handle. Match them with a set of lightweight wire gates and nuts and you’ve got an extremely light rack – I’m definitely getting a set of these beauties!”
The Dragon Cams have attracted quite a bit of media attention, go to the DMM site to read more; they are also incredibly strong, to read about there boulder lifting power go here.
If you can’t make it down to any of the V12 shops this week the Dragon Cams can be mail ordered from the V12 shop site.
