In addition to being a fantastic accessory to the ZED and ION bindings, the G3 ION ski crampons could be called the universal crampon due to their second, 'direct to ski' mounting option. Of course, if you use it with the ION, it's even easier-- just slide the included receptors under the toe pieces and screw them in. With its unique corded attachment system, the ION ski crampons can be installed or removed easily with one hand. G3 wanted to prove that they always think of everything, so the crampon features a humped profile to allow your boot to drive it into the snow even while using your risers. Last but not least, it’s shiny! Look good and grip even better with the G3 ION ski crampons.
Comes in 85mm, 95mm, 105mm, 115mm, and 130mm widths to fit any ski.
Universal mounting kit works with any tech binding / ski combination.
Simple pull cord operates the attachment, which can be used with one hand.
Raised rear profile helps your boot drive the points into the snow.
Receptors that slide under the ION binding toe pieces included.
Embossed 7075-T6 aluminum is strong and pleasing to the eye.
Weighs just 135 grams (4.7 ounces) for the 105mm width.
Christine, Ski crampons you want to fit as close as possible the ski edge. So they should be sized off ski waist width but not smaller than the waist width.
Hey folks. When used with Zeds the crampon bottoms out against the ski before the boot heel unless there is at least one heel lifter engaged. Is there any risk of damage to the binding, boot, or crampon if used on Zeds without the heel lifters up? Thanks for your time.
Greetings, I have Fischer Hannibal 96, paired with zed12 bindings, curious if the 95mm crampon will work or if its better to size up to the 105 (or better to stop by the store and verify : P)

Hi Randall, better to stop by the store if you're able to do so! Based on the measured width of the 95mm crampon, it could work but depends on your skis' specific dimensions.

Would the 95s work with 178 voile hyper v6's? 8 GRAMS ARE AT STAKE HERE!!!
The 95s will not quite work with the 178cm Hyper V6. It's really close! They can fit over the waist, but they will rub on the sidewalls the whole time.

So G3 recommends buying up in width, however it seems in almost all of these comments that you can buy the exact same width crampon as ski underfoot, or even smaller?
That said, i rock a Faction Agent 3.0, 106mm underfoot. I recently purchased the 115mm crampon, but now i'm second guessing it. Would the 105mm crampon work with 106 underfoot?
The 105 would probably work. We've got a table above, we've measured the interior width to be 107mm. Measure your ski at the toe piece and see how wide it is! However, the 115 would probably be fine.

Hi - I bought the 85s for my Helio Recon 88s and they fit fine. sure the 105 would work on your 106s. Happy day to all.
Love these - due to the quick click/release, I've found I already have both crampons on while others (i.e Dynafit users) are still fumbling with theirs and often times need to take their skis off. While easy to get on, getting them off is even easier - as is simply a pull on the quick release.
Wicked durable and have never had a bend either. They do seem to accommodate a slightly larger waist than the measurement reflects as well.
Hey Ben, the included receptors are compatible with the Zed. Just slide them under the toe piece and screw them in with the included hardware just like the ION.

Henriette Lazaridis
Just got my crampons from you guys, and I'm a bit stumped. I've mounted them on my G3 ion bindings (easy to do), but I can't see how my La Sportiva Spectre boots are going to be able to engage in ski mode in the binding. How is the heel going to get into the binding?
Hi Henriette, when transitioning into ski mode you will actually remove the ski crampons before stepping into the heel. If you pull on the cord it will unhook the crampon from the adapter that you attached to the toepiece, and then you can stash the crampons in your pack and finish your transition. Please don't hesitate to shoot us an email at help@skimo.co if I misunderstood your question.

Hey team, is there any chance that these could be fit a salomon guardian <frame> binding? Guardian crampons are Iike hens teeth in NZ.
Hey Grant! While we have not tested the compatibility of any frame binding ski crampons, I don't think these G3 ski crampons will work for you.
I believe you'll need the "Salomon Backcountry Crampons", but you may find them listed under other names. We happen to not carry this product and it may have been discontinued. Best of luck in your search!

Another "will it fit question" - will it work with the fritschi freeride frame binding? It looks like it theoretically could, just may need to be placed further back
Hi Joseph, hard to say for sure as we don't have any of the Freerides in the building to check but I strongly suspect the G3 crampons will not work with that binding. B&D makes a ski crampon that should work for you, check it out on their website.

Grace Chuchla
Hi there! I have yet another "will it fit?" question. I have G3 bindings (the Zed 9) on Blizzard Zero G 85 skis (157 length, if it matters). I'd love to get the 85 mm crampon for these skis, and it sounds like that might work based on the other questions you've answered. But it would be great if you could confirm that I'll have enough clearance. Thanks!
Hey Grace, can confirm the 85mm G3 ski crampons will fit great on the Zero G 85.

Question from
Melissa Sanborn
Will these ski crampons work with the 22 Designs Lynx Ski Bindings? Also my boards are 100mm underfoot. Is it safe to assume the 105mm would be best? Thanks!
Hello Melissa (again), The G3 Ski Crampon is a Universal design as it comes with a plate you can mount on any ski. But you still need room for it. In the case of any NTN style binding, the plate or springs would come down on top of the crampon. So this will not work with most Tele bindings.

Question from
Serena G.
My skis are 98 underfoot (atomic backlands), should I go with the 105mm or 95mm?
Hey Lauren, if the crampon width is too similar to the waist width of your ski, it may rub on your sidewall, which would not be ideal. However, the internal width of the 95mm crampon is ~100mm and therefore should work with your ski.

Emily Junck
I see some posts that the 105 will work with a 106 width ski but what about 107? I have Atomic Vantage 107. Will it work with those or should I get these 115mm? Thank you SkiMoCo! Emily
Hi Matthew, yes that would be the correct size. They are a few mm wider than list, so the option is essentially a ski width guideline with room for error depending on the sidecut of the ski.
My favorite attachment system for ski crampons out there. It's just a shame they only work with G3 bindings!
The G3 system easily lets you attach or remove your ski crampons with your skis still on - just push them on to the nubs on your bindings to attach and pull the loop to remove. It's a lot easier than the Dynafit style attachment where you have to slide the crampon into a small slot, and has the added benefit that the crampon always stays perfectly centered.
Once they're on, they work as well as any other ski crampon, nothing much to be said there.
