Petzl Sarken Crampon
NEW SARKENs !!!
By Joshua Keith
Ranked #346 - Crampons
January 27, 2009
Ignore the 'recall' comment. These crampons were recalled two years ago because a few climbers were breaking the extremely long front points. I climbed on the crampons and loved the performance. I grudgingly turned in my crampons when the 'recall' notice came in. Now that the crampons have been redesinged- I can't wait to buy a set. They are amazing at holding in anything- this is the ultimate mixed mountaineering crampon... the front points are long enough to puncture through aerated ice/frozen moss or anything else and give you reliable purchase. The twin tips also provide a very stable platform for placing equipment. Love em.
