CAMP - Blade Runner, mountaineering crampon and ice waterfalls

Renewed in the front part to ensure greater resistance to fatigue and in the rear lace.

The Blade Runner by CAMP is a highly innovative crampon that guarantees both maximum performance and maximum versatility and customization: the reference tool for ice falls, extreme mixed climbing and technical mountaineering. A single crampon to do everything, even with shoes designed for semi-automatic lacing.

The Blade Runner, thanks to its revolutionary structure, is above all the first crampon in the world to combine the stability and effectiveness of vertical structure crampons with the precision, versatility, ease of adjustment, as well as compatibility, of those with a horizontal. This is thanks to the adjustment slide integral with the heel, therefore free of joints and equipped with a step that releases the stop on the heel, also optimizing blocking. The rear part of the crampon is made of Sandvik Nanoflex® steel which, due to its exceptional resistance and toughness characteristics, allows the section of the structure to be reduced from 2.75 to 1.80 mm: this guarantees greater lightness and longitudinal flexibility of the tool for perfect adaptability to all soles. The absence of mobile joints instead ensures lateral rigidity and therefore the perfect fixing of the crampon - which behaves like a single block - for extraordinary performance when batting.

The geometry of the front tips guarantees safety of action, precision and comfort in any situation: on the most compact ice walls, for example, in the single-tip configuration stability is enhanced by the central fixed tips and the lower lateral ones which rest successively by lowering the heel so as to offer an appreciable "step effect". Conversely, in the more demanding mixed terrain, these tips allow large movements without the risk of undermining the main supporting one. Switching to the dual-tip configuration or replacing the ice tips with ALPINE hard snow tips (not included - innovative for their chisel design with three-sided bevel) is quick and easy.

The asymmetric design of the Blade Runner respects the ergonomics and natural load line of the foot offering surprising sensitivity. The particular arrangement of the tips, in particular the group of converging and non-parallel front ones, shows a reduced tendency to retain snow. Also worth highlighting is the possibility of switching from automatic to semi-automatic lacing by simply replacing the new front arch with the cap suitable for boots without a front notch, which are very common today, for excellent performance with any shoe.

Sandvik Nanoflex® an innovative steel alloy with mechanical resistance and toughness 60% higher than normal alloy steels; allows you to reduce the amount of metal to be used, significantly reducing the weight while maintaining its resistance intact.
