Wild Country Friends NEW 2026

The Friend is the most advanced piece of gear on any climber’s rack. The new generation of cams still feature: the 13.75° cam angle, hollow double axles, and milled lobes for max holding power and minimal walking.The key feature of Wild Country Friend is the combination of thumbloop and extendable cord. This design reduces the need for extra draws, minimizes rope drag, and lessens walking.

• Thumbloop + Extendable Cord: The signature feature of Wild Country Friends – combining the ease of a thumb loop with the benefits of an extendable sling, up to 20 cm
• Extendable Flow Cord technology: A new seamless core-mantle cord that eliminates stiff bartacks, enabling smooth and snag-free extension
• Nylon and UHMWPE outer sheath resists cuts and abrasion, while the UHMWPE core provides mechanical strength
• Red wear indicator in the core signals when it's time for sling replacement
• 14-years certified lifespan: Resists UV, moisture, and freeze-thaw stress (10 years of service life + 4 years of storage)
• Hollow double axle design: Minimizes weight while maximizing cam range for better size overlap
• Milled and polished cam lobes: Softer, untreated aluminum offers 8–10% more grip than anodized surfaces
• Spring-loaded lobes locking system (Size 4): Central spring ensures symmetrical cam closure and easy one-handed operation
