Skeats Claws Splitboards & Accessories-NA-110mm

SKEATS CLAWS 110MM Skeats Claws are for those looking for a more aggressive Skeats skin cleat combined with a minimalist ski crampon. The longer, angled back, front ascent points are paired with even longer side points to aid skiers and splitboarders in navigating steep switchbacks and traversing variable snow and ice. Skeats Claws will benefit any skill level. For the beginner, steeper slopes and kick turns are easy to master. For the expert, extra grip insurance on critical sections gives peace of mind. Skeats Claws help overcome ski and splitboard limitations. If your ski splitboard has a short-radius sidecut or rocker you lose edge and skin traction. Skeats Claws get you that traction back and more. If splitboarding, the use of conventional soft snowboard boots limit your ability to apply edge pressure. Use Skeats Claws to gain back edge grip when sidehilling. The Skeats Claws give splitboarders the ability to traverse like skiers. Keep the group together Skeats Claws are small and packable and can just live in your backpack. You can pack them in an old sunglasses case or simply stow in a hip pouch. As a bonus, you will always have two 20 Skeats branded Voile straps with you that can be removed from the Skeats and used independently for any repair first aid needs. In emergency situations the Skeats Claws can also be used as emergency boot crampons on stiff sole mountaineering and snowboard boots. Skeats Claws are NOT intended as a replacement for mountaineering boot crampons and are only to be used as a last resort to help reach safer terrain. Practice with them in safe terrain and never over any life threatening exposure. Carry proper mountaineering boot crampons on tours requiring them. Skeats are also the perfect option for people who use more than one width of ski, more than one type of binding, more than one splitboard, or who both ski tour and splitboard.
