Im moving to boulder Colorado and want to know what gear i should add to my rack.
Ive got 10 trango cams sizes 0.5-9, 1 BD #6, 1 set of stoppers. A bunch of spectra slings and carabiners.
I havent done a whole lot of trad so any info would be great. thanks

You have a substantial gap between the largest Trango size and the #6. You should look to get the whole c4 range up to 5, maybe add the smallest five TCU's and get a few tricams too.

i confused the trango sizes with BD sizes what i thiught was a BD #6 is actually a BD#1, its a similar size as the trango #6.
Any other tips?

OK, well.... I also have the Flex cams from 4 to 9 to supplement the BD from about 0.5 up, which works quite well... there's some overlap, which is nice. The #9 flex is about equal to the old 3.5 grey camalot, so you may want to get at least a #4 and #5 c4's as well as the other smaller c4's that you don't have.

yeah, i'd add a green, yellow, blue, and grey Camalot and blue, yellow, orange, and red TCU's.
I think that'd be a pretty good setup, I also like my link cams, but that's more of a personal preference.
