They had a two cam at rock and snow, my local retailer, well we played around with it for a few weeks at the shop. then one day the stem broke and the owner sent them all back.

I think they fixed the problem since

I haven't tried them, but from what i've seen of them i just have a hard time trusting them. Of course, a lot of people doubted cams when they first came out. I just like to have more metal touching the rock, i guess.
