Underfoot, laser-cut Chromoly steel points provide traction over steep icy routes. Ten contact points engage while walking with two extra points - the third pair of front points - are shorter and set wider to grip the slope during traverses. The last two front points feature double angulation allowing them to maintain bite during descents and sideways traverses. A multi-ply stainless steel flex regulation bar works like suspension, providing dynamic movement that allows the crampon to flex with the foot as you climb. The Air Tech features Grivels Antibott system as can be seen in the video. This pro-active, anti-ball design works to prevent the build-up of wet snow and ice underfoot, which can otherwise render the crampons grip ineffective and lead to slips and falls.

The two parts are designed to fit together - points inward - to be stowed safely when not in use.
