These nuts are magic. They slide in spots where no other pro will go, more often than not I place these guys way more than normal nuts. If you're on the fence about buying these guys and climb a decent amount, buy em. You won't regret it.

I chiseled out a #9 (Red) DMM Offset nut out of a crack that someone had left behind. Just another piece of booty gear at the time, it went on my rack of nuts. Then I started placing it... consistently, for the rest of the season. So I ordered my own set! Stoked. Flares and weird places, these just make a more secure placement than regular nuts. Thank you to whoever bailed off that nut and opened up my world, I'll try to pay it forward. I've used them in mostly western granite, but I foresee these being handy in some southern sandstone as well.

I climb mostly granite and quartzite out here in SLC, UT and I have found these to be the easiest to place over my BD stoppers, they fit so well in flares and weird spots were nothing else will, and they are rated to 12 kN so they are super strong!

I'm not sure if I can say much that hasn't already been said. But any product that can have such a unanimous decision on just how awesome they are can't be wrong. Look through the rest of our page and you will see there are very few product that get such a consistent consensus of awesomeness. Again, these are great for flares and odd placement where regular nuts or active pro just won't protect. They are light and are a great addition to any budding or experienced climber alike. Pick them up and soon you will realize what all the hype is about.

I climb mostly granite and find myself placing these guys just as often as regular stoppers.

I currently have a double rack with dmm wallnuts and I decided that these would be the first branching out into a wider range of protection. Oh my what a wonderful purchase! They compliment the dmm wallnuts perfectly covering flaring finger placements. I was in an area that required both regular nuts and offsets on my first outing with them and saw the benefit immediately. They are able to protect in non-standard placements with outward or downward flares, pinscars, as well as in constrictions containing inward flares (place the nut backwards). One of the biggest pros is their ability to be placed and still allow room for finger jams. Definitely held up when a rainstorm poured down on me and they became my primarily protection over cams.

From my experience so far, you should get these or the standard chocks, but you mostly won't need both. These won't come out of the best set placements. Tap away!

If you climb on granite, you need these. Actually, if you climb trad at all, you need these. I often find myself reaching for my offsets before my wallnuts; I usually get a better placement with these. Great for flaring placements or in pin scars, but they work in a lot of other situations as well! pIck some up today!

After previously owning BD nuts, I find myself going for these first now, especially in Little Cottonwood Canyon where flares are everywhere

absolute must in Yosemite. I have BD stoppers, which are fine, but these give me just a bit more peace of mind when starting in on any kind of runout.

These are a fantastic addition to any set of stoppers. I primarily place my regular Wallnuts, but these are made for those weird flared cracks and pods where nothing else inspires confidence. Even if you don't come across any placements like that, they double up in the most useful sizes and can be used in nearly all of the same placements as regular Wallnuts. If you place a lot nuts, these are definitely worth it!

These are the best nuts. Bought this and paired with a set of the DMM Peenut No. 1-5 and I've never touched my pro set of BD stoppers again. Learn to place them and you can use them for common and offset placements. Featherweight and superior function.

If you climb granite, get them. They are awesome for any flaring cracks or weird constrictions. I was not huge on passive in little cottonwood until I got these. Pair them with the peenuts to feel good on granite

Whenever I climb in Yosemite or Joshua Tree, I'm always grabbing these over my normal set of nuts. The offset shape just fits so well in those flared cracks. These guys make tricky placements bomber. You'll be using these so often that you'll be tempted to get a second set. Many of the other reviewers will agree, just get them! You will not be disappointed.

I trad climb in the Sandias outside of ABQ mostly. Before I got these, I was taking normal BD nuts up with me, which did get placed sometimes, but always unsatisfactorily. Then I got these, and they fit EVERYWHERE. They make improbable placements bomber. They fit the little pods and flares that constitute Sandias trad so well that I almost want two sets for longer climbs. For me, they are really-confidence-inspiring and easy-to-place passive pro, which is a godsend for a relative novice.

These fit like a glove where other nuts are a little finicky. Easy to place and set. Great addition to my rack. I climb at the Gunks and these are invaluable.

I can't expect how much it will fit into the cracks until I started using it.. Then I preferred using nuts to camalots..

I really like these offsets. They seem to fit in a variety of situations and work really well here in the Wasatch. They seem durable and I feel comfortable using them in whatever situation. I would highly recommend these to anyone and everyone.

These little guys seem to fit so well in pretty much any situation. In particular the cracks in Big Cottonwood take nuts really well, and I am always happier placing cheap, bomber pro than worrying about losing cams.
