I highly recommend the PRO version of the product as the anti-balling feature works well and is essential on icy snow.
In higher ice areas, there are no traction issues or balling of snow, indicating the effectiveness of the crampons' anti-balling plates.

Both pairs of crampons are easy to put on and take off on the trail, even in gloves. This encourages me to use them when needed and not when not needed.
