Camalot Z4 Camming Devices - Black Diamond

Born from an open-hearted discussion with top trad BD athletes Hazel Findlay, Carlo Traversi, Sam Elias, and Babsi Zangerl, the Camalot Z4 is the fulfillment of a dream: to have a single-stem Camalot that remains rigid in hand but becomes flexible once in place. Here is the patent-pending RigidFlex stem. Thanks to its independently floating stem cables, the Camalot Z4 does not flex when under tension or retracted, but once in place, it allows the stem to move and achieve an anchorage that stays put and does not move when pulled in a certain direction. For larger sizes, the stem also features a double twisted cable structure that provides uniform flexibility in all directions, while for smaller sizes, a single cable is used to prevent deformation when pulling hard on the trigger and to reduce trigger volume. With a head as wide as the old model, the Camalot C3, but with 4 sandblasted cams for better holding power, the Camalot Z4 is not just an improved version. It is also available in smaller sizes, ranging from size #0, our smallest Camalot ever made, up to size 0.75 allowing you to adjust the gear, whether you're seeking cracks at the summit or progressing with lightness and speed in the Alps.
