Good, but damn they're stiff 3 out of 5 stars

The cams are nice, but the trigger action is really stiff. Not a piece I like to grab when I've been popping TCU's and C4's with minimal effort. It really requires some force to collapse the lobes all the way. More than once this has thrown me off on a placement because I didn't get the lobes all the way down. They aren't bad by any means. They place well but the action is just horrendous in my opinion. The thumb loop is the only thing that makes using these possible. I'm sitting here playing with my number 2 right now and the action just seems gritty and super stiff. Other than that I love how flexible the stem is and that there isn't anything protruding beyond or outside the lobes (other than the tiny trigger wire ends).

Great shoe 5 out of 5 stars

Been wearing this shoe for a couple months and I love it. They have almost molded to my foot. Whenever I drop my heel in they create a suction sound, they fit so good. Break in period sucked, but now they're super comfy. I'm down a size and a half from my normal street shoe. They stretched probably half a size for me. Just don't drag the laces, that's they're only down fall. The lacing system is cool, but the laces don't hold up to being dragged across tons of rock. They edge on everything, smear well after break in, and stick to the rock like suction cups.
