These cams are pretty awsome, the smaller sizes are easy to place and have some nice teeth on them to grip into rock, although the bigger size aliens do not have teeth like the little ones they are awsome too.

The small head size and flexibility of the Aliens make them near-mandatory on a Gunks climber's rack - I vastly prefer them to BD Camalots of equivalent size, as they go places that other cams can't. There are two types of cams on my rack: BD Camalots (.5 and above), and CCH Aliens (.5 and below). Sometimes hard to find, but well-worth the search.

One of the greatest pieces of protection ever brought to the marketplace. The straight poop is that these babies have had a greater influence on allowing me to climb 5.11 trad than any other piece of gear with the possible exception of shoes. The ease of placement and multiplicity of placement options deliver the peace of mind usually reserved for prescription pharmaceuticals. Surfing with the Aliens! Joe Satriani and all that. Double up on sizes blue through red, and if you can get your hands on the hybrids ?!, CALL ME!!!!

nothing bad to say about these cams - the floppy stem is awesome given the right application.

I have two brands of cams on my rack, BD and CCH. For the big stuff, get the BD, but for anything smaller than the green, get the Aliens.
Why, you ask? Because when you slot a green or a yellow alien in a crack, you just know it's bomber! I already have 2 yellows, but I need another one, and probably two more greens as well. The blue is stellar, and the black is bomb on aid.
Anything bigger than the red will require a different reviewer than me, I have BD's when it gets up that large.
At any rate, want small stuff? Get Aliens.
I give 'em a 5 for their use, small stuff.
