Zero Friend Set Rock Climbing Cam

About the Wild Country Zero Friend Set

Inspired by the new era of speed ascents by the Hubers, Dean Potter, Leo Houlding and the new wave of super difficult clean-aid routes Wild Country felt that the time was ripe for the original cam company to make its contribution. They tried to figure out was missing from the rack - what tools could make the difference? Something that could advance tiny 'clean' placements, that was so light it was no burden to carry, that was so flexible at the head it wouldn't lever out or break the placement? And so the Zero Friend was born.

Greeted with astonishment when they were shown at the world trade shows in 2002 and since then they've proved to be in a league of their own, the Zeros from Wild Country will fit in where nothing else can or will.

These incredible cams have a combination of features that make Zeros 'clever' enough and strong enough to satisfy the demands of cutting edge climbers for the ultimate tool in their quest for more and more extreme adventures. The smallest and lightest cams ever made, Zero Friends are designed without compromise; flexible, strong and reliable, they’re perfect for free or aid climbing and essential kit on every hardcore rack.

“New products appear from time to time that make routes easier and sometimes people claim these advances warrant grade revisions. I know these claims are for real. Zeros will do much more than we can yet imagine. Speed times will shrink and grades really will need adjustment. These are the indispensable granite tools for the 21st century.”
