I only have the #7 in these and I'm not a huge fan. I'm sure that I'd love it in soft sandstone, but I'd rather have the power cams for most rock I climb on.

got no use for 'em. too specialized becuase they are too wide for a general purpose cam. on soft sandstone i simply place gear more often.

I love these guys, when climbing in soft stone they do the trick. I like having that extra surface area.

These things are great, I trust them the most in chossy rock and sanstone type rock. They have bigger lobes and lots of friction with loose rock, so its twice as hard for them to come out. Only drawback is the extra weight.

These things rock the house! The fat lobes make the cam look/feel more secure. I've used my set of these in all types of rock, and don't have any complaints. Nothing else feels close to as good in sandstone. Because of the wide lobes, these are not low-profile cams. Better take TCUs or Aliens if you anticipate lots of pin scars.
