Fast & Light for Alpine Ascents
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Used this tool on two summits in patagonia recently. Performed very well in ice/mixed up to 70 degrees pitch : Surprisingly good for a simple and light tool. Very good for fast ascents when grams matter.
Can you confirm that the pick is B rated and shaft is T rated? It looks like a T rated pick.
Spoke to Grivel, the shaft & pick are both T rated. Sorry for the confusion and we are going to update our site.
How acceptable would these be for B/C skiing? I know the length is short, but shape appears to be acceptable for a single quiver axe(s) for both ice climbing and ski mountaineering in the NE. Any comments, warnings or alternate suggestions?
This would be very acceptable for backcountry skiing and mountaineering in general. Would be lacking performance on vertical ice but, definitely better performing than a straight shafted traditional mountaineering axe.
