Black Diamond Contact Strap Crampon

Item #BLD1066 | 7 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Great for Ski Mountaineering

By Ranked #101 - Crampons July 31, 2009

These were my first pair of crampons and I loved them. I used them mainly for ski mountaineering but have done plain snow travel on them as well. They fit on alpine and AT ski boots as well as mountaineering boots just fine. In addition to moderate slopes, they actually handle steep snow very well. I tend to just keep them for the steeps and skin on the shallow. I have used these for front-pointing up 45-50 degree couloirs and they performed flawlessly.
