In reply to MischaHY:
Sure, I suppose I mean full sized and traditional style, totems are somewhat exotic. I mean theres things like the super cam and technically the link cam, but I’d say they are all rather specialised. I know it’s not trendy to say it but totems fall into that category, I remain unconvinced as to how much better totems are in general every day use. Unless placements are really marginal I don’t see a significant increase in performance. Indeed you could make an argument that the increased holding power comes at the cost of increased outward force, which would make it more likely for you to break flakes etc if you’re daft enough to place a cam behind one. I’ll make a caveat for narrow pockets and horizontal breaks where head width and flexibility are better...
