The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about C.A.M.P. USA Dyneema Tri-Cams - Set of 4:

Tri-cams stand alone in their category. They are not the easiest pieces to place but they aren't as hard to place as everyone says. I think they are actually more difficult to clean. They work great in pockets and will make a bomber placement where nothing else will even fit. On certain rock types these can be a life saver. This set of 4 is also the 4 that you will use on a regular basis. Buy this set first because the only other ones you might want will be the new white and black peices.

Comments about C.A.M.P. USA Dyneema Tri-Cams - Set of 4:

It is true that Tri-Cams take a bit of practice to use well, but as others have said, they work where nothing else well. Furthermore, they are excellent for use at anchors where you have a bit more time and hopefully both hands to place them - this way, you don't burn cams that you want for the pitch ahead.

A word of caution: tri-cams that have held a fall, especially smaller ones, can be close to impossible to remove.

Comments about C.A.M.P. USA Dyneema Tri-Cams - Set of 4:

I ahve been using these for several seasons and at first was a little intimidated by them cause its not your usual pull and go cam. But for the weight and price these are great little jobs to add to any rack. Give it some practice and soon they'll be what you're looking for.

Comments about C.A.M.P. USA Dyneema Tri-Cams - Set of 4:

The vast majority of my climbing is sport climbing which is readily available where I live. I got these primarily for use on mixed climbs. Since I don't do much trad climbing, I didn't want to spend a lot of money on expensive Cams. Tri-cams were a good, less expensive alternative. Compared to standard cams, these are hard to place, but with practice they're fine. Each tri-cam covers a good range, and can be used in several different configurations making them extremely versatile. As others have stated, these can be hard to remove, so invest in in a good nut tool if you don't want end up loosing them because they got stuck.
