Improve your climbing performance with Black Diamond Z4 Offset belayers, approved by our top BD athletes. Discover them now!
The result of a heart-to-heart discussion with our top BD athletes at trad. Hazel Findlay, Carlo Traversi, Sam Elias and Babsi Zangerl, the Camalot Z4 Offsets are the fulfillment of a dream: to have a single-stem Camalot that remains rigid in hand but flexes once in place. Introducing the patent-pending RigidFlex stem. Thanks to their independently floating retaining cables, Camalot Z4 Offsets don't flex when tensioned or retracted, but once in place, they allow the rod to move and achieve a mooring that stays in place and doesn't budge when pulled in a certain direction. For larger sizes, the rod also features a structure of double twisted cables that provide uniform flexibility in all directions, while for smaller sizes, a single cable is used to avoid deformation when pulling hard on the release and to reduce the volume of the release. The sizes of the Camalot Z4 Offsets also ensure that you have the perfect mooring for every eventuality, in piton holes, in non-uniform placements and irregular cracks which, in the world, are far more numerous than perfect cracks. With a head of the same width as our previous model, the Camalot C3, but with 4 sandblasted cams for better pull-out resistance, the Camalot Z4 is not just an improved version. It's also available in smaller sizes, from size 0, our smallest Camalot ever, right up to size 0.75, allowing you to adjust the material, whether you're looking for cracks on the summit or progressing lightly and quickly through the Alps.
Product Features
Setting a new standard for single-stem Camalots, the Camalot Z4 Offsets feature our revolutionary RigidFlex stem design which, as its nom name suggests, remains rigid when fitted but becomes flexible as you climb. They guarantee a secure grip and reduce the distance you have to travel for a solid mooring you can rely on. These models with offset cams ensure that you always have the right material in piton holes or uneven moorings.
