Extra cams at Point Perp

Is there a general crack size range for Point Perp?

I'm thinking about buying some extra cams and wondering what sizes would be most useful to have extra of.

Not really its a bit of everything really! Small all the way through to large being handy on even some of the face routes and in the pockets,

Hmm, maybe I should have been clearer, I have a full set, are there any particular sizes that it would be better to have doubles / extras in?

Purple through to yellow camalot goes in a lot. You often only need one bigger cam on the easier cracks (and it's usually required at the top), having extra middle sizes allows you to save the big ones till you need them.

Despite my general feelings of disgust towards hexes, they would work fine in lots of the cracks (if you're too pov to own enough cams). Totally useless on the face routes though, where it's all about cams in horizontals and pockets.

10mm 316 is the preferred choice.

You obviously don't understand the OP's question . . .

If you re-instate my SaferCliffs Forum access I can explain it to you there . . .
