Walking on 10 points:
* length of points designed for optimal stability and avoidance of the "stilt" effect,
* lateral points are separated to respect the asymmetry of the boot and to limit the "rail" effect which increases the risk of slipping,
* supplied with ANTISNOW to avoid slipping on sticky snow.
Front pointing:
* 2 flat front points for increased bearing power,
* thin-section points for good penetration on ice,
* next 2 points inclined to give stability.
Adjustment is easy (no tools) and precise (to the half-size).
SIDELOCK binding, for boots with front and rear sole overlaps (wire at front and rear). Rapid-fastening lateral binding system, avoiding the encumbrance of a heel-bail. |

Voted 4/5 | Compared to other crampons the price is quite elevated. While "walking" it works perfectly but a few times I got trouble with the antisnows which did not work properly. But the SIDELOCK binding is very well done. Working like the classic step-in bindings I consider it to be even quicker. | | Posted Dec 15, 2005 12:20 pm |
| Bart Roskam | Worthless Sidelock system | | 
Voted 1/5 | I've tried the sidelock system with two different pair of boots and with both it was a struggle to put the bindings on or off. The Crampons are okay, but the Sidelock systm sucks big time. I wish I could have bought a normal lever system. | | Posted Jun 8, 2007 8:11 am |
