CAMP Alpinist Pro Auto / Semi-Auto technical mountaineering crampons

The CAMP Alpinist Pro Auto / Semi-Auto optimise the benchmark Alpinist crampon for the most technical alpine terrain. They use much of the technology and innovative design of the Blade Runner crampons to ensure a precise fit with modern boots and extra rigidity between the front and rear platforms.

Their two-piece construction in nickel-chrome-molybdenum (NiCrMo) steel eliminates the traditional articulating linking joint: the heel slide integrates the micro-adjustable linking bar for excellent axial rigidity. Once adjusted, the crampons behave like an extension of the boot, with very little play and flex on technical terrain.

The 12 points include two T-shaped front points, optimised to penetrate vertical ice and hard snow, plus secondary points with an aggressive profile that provide the grip needed on steep ice without sacrificing comfort on the ascent. The asymmetric design follows the contours of modern mountaineering boots.

The Alpinist Pro is delivered as standard with automatic and semi-automatic toe bails, for optimal compatibility with your boots and the conditions of the day. The dynamic anti-balling plates, with a unique design and elastic material, prevent snow build-up underfoot. An adjustable carrying case with lashing straps lets you attach them to the outside of your backpack.
