I dont know why im watching this im never gonna climb im physically disabled...still I love watching videos of everest, k2, annapurna and its so satisfying hearing the spikes dig in to ice and snow
Mountains are fun whether you can climb them or not... glad you are passionate about them.
You don't have to climb to enjoy mountaineering :)
I came here after finding out people have been trying to climb mount everest when they had no idea how to put on crampons.
I realize it's kind of randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to watch newly released movies online ?
@Brady Korbin lately I have been using Flixzone. Just search on google for it :)
I had trouble with Instructions on these Crampons last night. I’m a visual learner. Great! Now I can get ready to go climb Mount Everest. Thanks👍🏽
Holy hell .. please fix the bundled up mess of a strap for the petzl crampons on the lowa boot. wtf is that!!
Can you show how to tighten a crampon properly so that it doesn't come lose every 10 minutes?
He did. Buy a mountaineering boot.
@@epiwah1 a b2 boot with a semi auto crampon is also a mountaineering boot and the crampon can come loose or even pop off under certain scenarios. You're advice doesn't help.
You should spread out your uploads for better audience engagement

The micro spikes are useful for crossing a frozen car park, walking the dog maybe, but as a trail spike you have to be kidding. Insteps should be intemediary choice.
I bought some but I couldn’t get the sizing right. The back of my foot wasn’t lined up with the back of the crampon and I had trouble trying to adjust them or size them to my boot. Could be a good tutorial video.
I just wanted an Everything you need to know about Tampons video but hey crampons are good to have when you are PMSing

I had proper steel crampons in 2003
Nepal Annapurna December going up and I needed them to climb
he hee i wonder how they came up with the name of CRAMPONS? 🤣 Its sounds like having menstruation pains. I call them ice cleats
what crampons do you recommend for Oly Mons Cube S boots?
It would have been nice if you told people how to put on the micro crampons.
Eli! Whaaaaaa!!!
What brand are those green boots?
Nepalese
Lowa Weisshorn GTX
Can these be worn on wet terrains, with rocks and pebbles? No snow, just wet and dry rocky trails?
no crampons are made for ice. they have almost no grip on rocks and you'd just be ruining them. why'd you want crampons? perhaps theres a better thing to get like quality boots or something
@@arroyocampbell9304 I have hiking shoes/boots, but they will slip occasionally
@@stettan1754 Crampons will only make it worse and you'll damage them, you need boots/shoes with better grip. Or focus on finding footholds.
