Ok so I just got my grubby little hands on the new Max Cam. I like it for the exception of one hang up. This new Kevlar Glue in cord. It looks like nylon, and glued in???????? Im an aid climber, I know abuse, Im worried this stuff is going to break or come unglued. Metolius has always had an great reputation when it comes to "not " having to replace triggers, unlike other brands, Not to mention any (bd) ahum. Has anyone put these things to the test yet?? what about sand and water breaking down the glue? What about the cords durability to the abuse against the rock?

Just to avoid confusion, you should note that the new cam is called "Master Cam," not Max Cam. Also, there's a message thread already started on the subject of these interesting new cams, so you might want to pose your questions there:
