Pink tricam. Bar none, the most useful piece I've ever owned. I use it on sport climbs, trad climbs, ice climbs, the works. I love the pink.

Ohhh...this is a hard one to consider....I'd have to say that nothing loosens the spinchter more than my #1 Camalot. Of course the #5 Chiounard stopper that held my 20ft whipper last August comes in at a close 2nd :lol:

It has to be my #3 TCU that is at least 10 years old with the original webbing! It looks like sh*t and bent all over the place but it is the first piece on my rack. It has caught me on more falls than any other piece of gear and i always seem to be able to find a place to put it - when it dies it will go on my wall like a big buck trophy deer....

They aren't sexy but I love my #10 BD stoppers. They place about as often as anything on my rack and I feel great when I sink them.

My only annodized BD #10...my favorite color. Black!
And a story:
When I climbed Prodigal Sun, the guys climbing ahead of me dropped their clothes bag (all their pricy rain gear). I met up with them the day after the climb when they went out on the crazy slabby crap below the climb to retreive their lost bag...
The came up the hill with a handfull of booty that others had dropped. One of the peices of booty was my PROPERLY TAGGED black stopper! I never even knew I dropped it! (Cut me some slack, first wall, solo, I was scared!)
Of course they gave it back and I bought them breakfast!
Looooovvvee that nut!
-Kate.
