        Comments about Black Diamond Wired Stopper Set:

        Used these to set up a couple of topropes so far, looking forward to doing more with them. The range of nuts seems really versatile for the type of anchors I'm used too, with good overlap between the sizes.

        I did get one nut really jammed into a crack and it scuffed up the anodization pretty bad, but the structure is still fine and I'm looking forward to scuffing up the rest.

              This is my second set of these nuts and they have never let me down, I honestly feel more safe with these baby's more than I do cams. Definitely a requirement for an average climber.

              I recommend these to everybody. The curved shape seems to fit anywhere and they are easy to learn trad with. I often place them and think, "Man, I would love to fall on that piece"

                    These are good, no nonsense stoppers. Easy to place and retrieve. Really essential gear for thin splitters, building anchors. save your cams for the crux and earn some style points by using stoppers.

                    Comments about Black Diamond Wired Stopper Set:

                    [...] Anyhow, the BD stoppers are very easy to place. They are not as versatile as the DMM wallnuts (in that they don't fit as wide a range of contours), but this is one potential benefit they bear, as good placements in the rock are easier to identify.

                    I love placing these stoppers! There is nothing like placing a stopper and then giving it a few hard yanks to set it in place. Cams are quicker and generally stronger but stoppers will fit in places few cams will go.

                      Comments about Black Diamond Wired Stopper Set:

                      I've never understood the reasoning for all the other manufacturers to design fancy passive protection. BD's stoppers are simple and work well. Don't waste money buying other "fancy" stoppers. These are the basis for all others and will suffice in any environment. You'll find that these cost roughly half of what some of the other brands retail for.
