scheissami Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Anyone picked these up yet? Seems pretty sweet, with aggressive secondary teeth and a not-quite-monopoint setup. I'm looking for some crampons more suited for water-ice, rather than alpine type stuff; these seem the business. Your take? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Phil Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Rambo IV: Pearl of the Cobra (2008) The next chapter finds Rambo recruited by a group of Christian human rights missionaries to protect them against *pirates*, during a humanitarian aid deliver to the persecuted Karen people of Burma. After some of the missionaries are taken prisoner by sadistic Burmese soldiers, Rambo gets a second impossible job: to assemble a team of mercenaries to rescue the surviving relief workers.

scheissami Posted October 10, 2007 Author Share Posted October 10, 2007 Bump... Thought I would see if anyone had opinions about these now they've been out for a while. Also, BD has revised the cyborgs as well. What are you guys using for water ice crampons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackY Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 M10s with the front points offset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrogdortheBurninator Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 i have the 4s and love em. The front point design really offers the best of both worlds (mono/dual). They are heavy, but that seems to make them climb better. Also, the antibotts work exceptionally well for a rigid crampon. THe asym shape definitely lends itself to a more modern ice boot, otherwise your heel will be hanging off at a weird angle. Definitely try them on your boots before you buy. It they fit, I can't imagaine a better crampon for pure water ice / mixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayB Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 All BD water-ice crampons seem to have the secondary points set way too far back for my liking. YMMV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
