We overmold a section of a proprietary thermoplastic blend, right where the climbing wire contacts the baseplate, allowing for even smoother transitions between 12°, 18°, and stowed positions.
ST Whammy Bars are integrated into our ST bindings. They are offered as a current spare part or replacement.
The ST Whammy Bar is not backward compatible with the Arc, Surge or other previous models due to a geometry change in both the baseplate and wire. We will continue offering standard Whammy Bar kits as well for a retrofit option.
