The world’s best-selling, most trusted cam just got better. The redesigned Camalot C4 from Black Diamond has now upped the ante, considering it’s 10% lighter yet just as durable as before. Plus, it features a modern design that improves on the old tried-and-true Camalots.

The cam’s lobes are lighter and more sculpted, optimized for strength to weight, while the slings have a visual update for easier differentiation when racking. And speaking of racking, they’ve introduced a new innovative trigger keeper on sizes 4, 5, and 6, that keeps the big guys contracted for compact racking and immediately release when you’re ready to place. They’ve also widened the trigger as well for better handling.
