I have it 2 or 3 years ago, but i use it just a few times and in a ground plane, so...here is the question: can i use it on a large slope? 50º maybe 60º degrees??

I've used mine with ski boots on 50 degree slopes, no problem. It's much better with a stiffer boot that allows you to front point, though.

Definitely. It'll work best on a stiff plastic boot, but any hiking boot should handle that slope easily with these.
