OK I've been using a pair of instep crampons for the past couple years, and they have been wonderful, except when used in a specific snow consistency where a giant ice ball grows in my instep and projects me 3' off the ground (ok thats exaggerating).
I know the larger 10/12 point cramp-ons have optional plates that insert underneath them and supposedly help to prevent sno-balling... but what have others found useful to prevent this pain in the you know what from re-occuring?
My current tactic is stopping every 1/4 mile or so for 10-15 seconds to manually tear the chunk out by hand. :-?
