Grivel Air Tech with New classic bindings, Crampons, Mountaineering

Description

Grivel's Air Tech Crampons represent a new generation of "all condition" crampons, with ten points in contact with the ice while you are walking, 12 points that bite into the slope during traverses. This has been made possible because the third pair of points are shorter and wider apart. On top of this feature, the last two front points have double angulations to maintain bite while descending or traversing. The crampon points on the bottom are short and designed for the new requirements of "mixed moderns" alternating ice and rock making walking easier and more efficient. The front points are long like the G12's for vertical ice.

both in the front and the rear, which prevents snow build up under the crampon.
NEW-CLASSIC BINDING
An evolution of the Classic binding. Both front and rear plastic harnesses are hinged from their respective retention posts and may be "opened" to facilitate attachment to the boot, then closed securely once the boot is inside. The single strap closure system is so simple we may not need to provide instructions; the New Classic is therefore ideal for rental programs and first time users. This system is simple and reliable, quick and easy, but it does take up a bit more space in the rucksack.
