Why We Like The Totem Cam
Renowned for their patented Direct Loading system, the coveted Totem Cam delivers bomber holding power. The narrow head eases placing and cleaning, while the strong, flexible stems reduce walking. When the placements get weird, we stay confident, knowing this pro will hold thanks to its maverick lobe pairs engaging independently.

The design of these cams is incredible. With the shape of the lobe allowing to act as an offset as well as a standard cam and replacement is perfect. My favorite cam is being DD‘s Camelot there even more narrow making it easier to place in pins scars. You need nothing else but these and micro nuts. As nacho would say ‘They are the best”

I love my totems! I got a black totem (my lord & savior) some time ago after hearing all the hype around totems, and after using it for a while I decided to stock up on a totem rack. I took a 20ft whip the other day on a purple totem (not intentional lol) and it was absolutely bomber. Was I scared and nearly shat my pants? Yes.. But did I have confidence that my cam below me would hold? Also yes. TL;DR - You don't need totems in your rack to whip or to be protected, but they are bomber cams and confidence inspiring. Worth the money.

These cams are the best. Why? 1. They fit where other cams don't 2. They are bomber. and i've tested that. more times than I care to admit. 3. They are perfect in the small sizes. Everyone knows about the legendary Black totem. It has legendary status for a reason. Fits where other cams don't.

Bomber Cams

Totems go in and stay where a C4 or TCU simply won’t! Because the load is distributed and equalized from the lobes individually, you can place them in really wonky ways, almost like an offset (within reason). Perfect in pin scars, almost never walk, and load over corners like nothing else. Get totems.
