Stinger Crampon

The Black Diamond Stinger Crampon features an aggressive mono-point design to give you an edge on steep ice and high-end mixed climbs. Plus, you get anti-balling plates, which keep snow from building up on the bottom of these 'poons when you're topping out on a long pitch. Black Diamond went with full stainless steel to eliminate rusting, so these crampons will surely last you season after season.

Details

  • The front point was built a little toward the inside of your foot to act more as an extension of your big toe and is assisted by two sub points for pure ice
  • Anti-balling plates ensure ice and snow doesn't collect and add weight to your kicks
  • Step-in attachment works easily with most boots and can be easily adjusted for a secured fit
  • The two-piece design features a flexible, sliding center piece to fit your boot size, and it features small spikes to bite into bulging, irregular ice
  • Item #BLD1408

Solid, sturdy

Been ice climbing with these in ouray and lake city, Colorado. Using them with 2023 scarpa phantom techs - easy mount dismount, no heal pinching.

Stoked!

I’ve borrowed these crampons from friends in the past as well as other crampons and I have liked these the most so I finally pulled the trigger. Super easy to adjust, mono point is the way to go for me and pretty durable. Can’t wait to get these out on some more ice!

Someone is getting stung!

Wore out my last pair guiding, can only sharpen them so many times! (yes the bottom points lol) Only issue I ever had was the front bail snapped...while leading *yikes* Cheaper plated metal, not stainless steel like the good ol' days. Please consider fixing this on future models. That said they are a fantastic crampon!

Stingers!

Got the email that the stingers were back in stock last week and ran to the outfitter to grab my pair! Can’t wait for this season! Like all BD crampons they are solid! Never used monos before and can’t with to see if the hype is real!

Back into ice climbing

I used to climb a lot some 20+ years ago and decided to get back into it. The ease of use and the holding power of the mono point is impressive on the brittle glacier fronts that I have worked on in the last few weeks. I'm very happy with this purchase. One mishap after three days of using: the stainless retainer clip that keeps the length of the crampon to your needs did somehow bend open a bit and it wouldn't stay to what you set it to. I needed some special tools to get in the clip to bend it back.

Climb Great

Had been climbing in the blade runners, but couldn’t find replacement front points, so ordered some Stingers. They climb great, easy to set the fit and and didn’t ball snow while walking around. Like all BD gear, super solid piece of equipment.

Great ice crampon!

A upgrade from Sabertooths. Even with the loss of a second front-point, my feet feel more secure in these on all ice that I've climbed. Can't say I've felt the same mixed climbing in these, however.

My Fav!

I have had a couple pairs of Stingers over the years and they are always super high performing, confidence inspiring, long lasting, and durable. Pretty much everything I want in my gear.
