"What Our GearheadĀ® Experts Are Saying:""I carried a spare set of Contact Crampon Abs on a multi day mountaineering trip after noticing some wear on my straps, and swapping them in at camp took just a couple minutes. Having that fix on hand meant one less thing to worry about on summit day.""Small parts matter most in the mountains, and the Black Diamond Contact Crampon Abs keep us moving when wear starts to show. We tuck a spare set into the repair kit before a big alpine push, knowing a quick swap at camp beats turning back over a worn strap. Built from durable TPU, they slide into place fast and hold up to whatever the ice throws at us next."
