Alpinist Combi
MSRP
Product Information
Vinschgau, Pustertal or Sella, Langental or Sottoguda - the Dolomites are a vertical winter playground... The Salewa Alpinist Combi is a versatile, robust stainless steel hybrid crampon for technical ice climbing, mixed routes and general mountaineering. Its carbon steel, 3D section frame construction has a strong and light clip design and a front basket to accommodate boots without a toe welt. The horizontal front points provide reliable purchase and load transfer on waterfall ice and horizontal rock edges. The overall geometry and semi-aggressive secondary points are engineered to provide a better grip on ice and in snow, while the extra mid-foot spikes offer additional security on verglas ridges and ice rime. In addition to the strong and light design, what really sets this semi-automatic crampon apart are its unique length-adjustable straps - no more loose ends. They significantly reduce the risk of stumbling. The flexing studded anti-balling plates, which seal the entire under surface minimize snow build-up. The low-profile heel bail ensures a secure fit, while the micro-adjust wheel is still simple to operate when gloved up. With no tools required, it's also quick and easy to adjust in the field.
