The Metolius Curve Hex is a highly versatile piece of pro at a darn good price. Offering four different placement options per piece with a range that is comparable to a camming device of similar size, Curve Hexes should be the foundation of any climber's rack. They are incredibly lightweight and about 1/5 the price of quality camming units. By curving the faces, Metolius opened up a lot of placement options by allowing them to slide past nubbins and irregularities that would block a traditional Hex. The gentle curves also allow them to cam into position by rotating on the convex face and setting up triangulations with the concave side. In laymen's terms, they will seat into their placements with tenacious holding power. Metolius chose to pre-wire all the sizes, eliminating excess bulk on your gear sling. For those of you that are new to trad climbing, the Curve Hexes are a great starting point for learning the basics of traditionally protected routes. It's easy to tell if you have made a sound placement on lead (both visually and by pull testing) or when setting up your top rope anchors. Alpinists will dig 'em cause they are way cheaper to leave at rappel stations. Great protection for first time gear buyers and seasoned vets alike.
This complete set includes sizes #1 to #10 and represents a tremendous value.
