Petzl Vasak 12-Point Mountaineering Crampon

Item #PTZ0208 | 19 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Sturdy Crampons

By Ranked #45 - Ice Climbing April 16, 2008

These 'pons are exactly as advertised. A light-ish strap crampons perfect for mountaineering, or just hiking up a slushy trail. I would not recommend them for ice climbing, or anything that requires serious front-pointing, as they are not designed for use with plastic boots. If you want serious ice-climbing performance, buy something else. But if you want a light pair of crampons which will add a much-needed sense of safety while ascending steep or slippery slopes, the Vasaks are perfect.
