Great for Everyday Use

By Nick Whatley Ranked #365 - Shovels May 8, 2009

Im a pretty serious snowboarder and I bought this shovel in winter of 2007. Ive never had to use it for digging myself out of dangerous situations, but it still does nicely for shaping ramps. The handle separates from the blade easily and both parts are small enough to fit inside my pack. It is made from solid metal and cuts through hard packed snow. The only problem Ive had is once I landed back first after a jump and bruised my back on the blade that I store in the main compartment of my pack. I keep an extra shirt between me and the blade from now on. Other than that, its perfect for everyday use on the mountain.
