Just great in every aspect

By Explorations Ranked #69 - Crampons July 7, 2010

I have been using these crampons (with the hybrid binding) for four seasons and they are still in great shape. I have really appreciated some of the details: (1) The heel points are a little flat, rather than pointed, so they brake better. (2) The heel lever adjustment is on the inside so there is less of a chance to damage it when wallowing in snow-covered rock. (3) The strap buckle openings are round, not rectangular, which helps with loosening when partially frozen. (4) The buckle has a Hypalon tab so it is easier to loosen it with gloves on. (5) The antibott plates flex so they are more effective than rigid ones.
