For anyone heading off to the Switzerland for their first alpine experience on the snow and ice these carmpons are a must have. The twelve points will give you the confidence and security on most glaciers and will allow you to climb on all but the steepest of slopes.
They are very easy to adjust, even when half way up a slope. The anti balling plates are not essential but will certainly make your life easier when walking on the mushy afternoon snow.
The quality of construction is excellent and no matter the level of punishment they will never fail.
