these are the BD ones. I have one set of HB offsets and (based on my very limited experience) I like placing them better somehow.

Excuse me, I have to go change my undies now! What a fit eh...BOMBER!!! What a crack and such a classic route! BD's work much better in Arches and all around the MOAB Area in the soft stuff, than HB's do. I actually modified my MET Curves so as to fit just like the BD's. This is from my very extensive experience! Nice report!!

Thank you very much Chief.

I'm happy to hear that as I blew the rei dividend on a handful of these BD ones :)

I understand you aided on it... I used similar sizes (DMM's) as active pro on some scary trad routes in England and Wales (but never tried to fly on them :)
cheers,

thanks Kamil! Yeah, bulk of this route is aid. I have been using these Black Diamond offset nuts for free climbing a bit too but also have not had the pleasure of falling onto one :)
