Just got the cams two weeks ago! Haven’t even gotten to go place them yet! Can’t wait until school lets up a bit. Leading on just hexes is a bit scary the first couple times for sure... or maybe that’s just me

An awesome guy here on MP hooked me up with a full set of stopper and hexcentrics plus a bunch of old REI biners for $60. I got a set of pink through blue tricams for $20 and that was my initial first rack. I led quite a few routes on that before I ever got any cams.

Learning to get by with less is a fantastic skill though.

Want hardware? Make a climbing video!
With the right producer you can get a ton of free gear.

I'll happily take some of those off your hands in order to relieve some of the tension that you inevitably have with your spouse as a result of your bigwall climbing addiction.

Here are most of the cams I own that are in active use - so nothing that has yet to be used, and nothing from my personal museum - except for the original 5 Totem cams with the anodized lobes in MINT condition! Those guy are too nice to not show off!
Missing from the shot: - 4 more sets of Wild Country Zero Cams (When I heard that these were no longer being made I went a bit overboard...) - 2 more sets of Black Diamond Camalot C3's This is almost all the passive pro I own except for the ones in my personal museum. Missing from the shot: - 2 sets of Trango Big Bros sizes #.5-5 - Omega Pacific Wedgies #1-13 - C.A.M.P. Pro Nuts #1-7 - Black Diamond Wired Hexcentrics #1-11 - Black Diamond Stoppers #1 & #2 (forgot them with my aid gear - D'OH!) - USHBA Titanium Nut Tool - C.A.M.P. Nut Tool - Trango Shark I underestimated how long it would take to set up these shots....
