The Leeper Cam Hook from Kop de Gas is something very special. This is because this hook only holds due to the load and the associated “torque”. It does not have to be piton be hammered in.
This means that it is first inserted into the crack. Then it must be loaded in order to a) not fall out and b) develop its holding force.
This model is indispensable for heavier techno routes and big walls. It is also extremely helpful for developers. Because you can use it to quickly bolt a climbing route to the wall.
