Ortovox Grizzly 2 Shovel

Item #ORT0091 | 0 in Stock
2 Star Rating

nope

By Ranked #164 - Shovels December 2, 2010

Personally I think Ortovox can improve on this. First of all my ski packs have a specific shovel pocket and because the handle does not separate from the blade it doesn't fit in my packs. My next issue is that when the shovel is collapsed the handle extention just slides right out. As soon as I took it out of the box the handle slid out and dropped to the floor. I do think its great when fully extended and locked out, its just not gonna work for my current application. Those who keep their shovels inside the main pouch or have giant shovel pockets may have more success.
