DMM DRAGON CAM

The DMM Dragon cams have been around for a few years. They are distinctive for a couple of reasons. First is the extendable sling. The sling, and attached cam, are racked like an alpine draw, with an 8mm Dyneema sling double looped through a carabiner and hung on a gear loop. Once you place a cam, most of the time you want to extend it by adding a sling or quickdraw. The Dragon Cam is built to extend so you can either just unclip on side of the sling and extend it out, or in the case of deep crack or placement out of line with where you’re climbing, you can add a draw to extend even further. This can cut down on the amount of hardware (and weight) you have to rack and carry. It also adds some handy versatility when the climbing gets interesting.
