What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "These are the first crampons I grab when I know the skin track is going to be firm. The ST axle makes them glide on and off so much smoother than older designs, and they stay fully engaged whether you're using the risers or not. The nesting design is awesome-way less bulk in the pack." We love heading into steep, icy terrain with total confidence, and the Spark R&D Ibex ST Crampons deliver exactly that. Crafted with lightweight aluminum and precision-engineered cutouts, these crampons give your splitboard the extra bite you need on bulletproof skin tracks and exposed traverses. The overmolded ST Tech axle makes installation and removal quick and smooth, so you can transition without fumbling even when conditions are tricky. The climbing wire pushes the teeth deep into the snow for consistent traction, and the smart nesting design packs down easily to save space in your pack. From early-morning approaches to high-consequence ridgelines, these crampons are the security blanket you'll be glad you brought.
