Long pole linear from JWK. Insanely smooth. Makes you gasp in wonder like the time you climbed half dome but forgot to bring a water bottle. Unlike SA camping, which is possibly the rarest publicly released keycap set in the world, these Camping Life switches from Neson Design will soon be in-stock at various vendors! I got mine from ClickClack (thanks Tom for sending them over!); check them out HERE! clickclack.io
