Description
The Petzl Ergonomic Ice Climbing Tool is just the pick needed to keep performance climbers in top condition throughout steep climbs and mixed climbing. The design of its grip enables you to hang with equal pressure applied to fingers. Climbers can also expect greater fiction and comfort when hanging to a more solid mold than other Petzl axes. The dry pick was made with an aggressive row of teeth on the top and bottom for stein pulling, cammed positions, and getting better purchase once you've topped out. The blade's tapered masselottes help the Ergonomic really jam into cracks. And at the rear of the head is the Mini Marteau hammer, primed for placing pitons and clearing out rock and ice.
Features:
- Comfortable grip, designed for highly technical climbing:
- multiple grip modes and stable hand switching, thanks to the double handle (high and low)
- lower handle is sharply angled for more comfort when hanging and more power for extremely difficult sections. The shape allows open-handed grip, limiting fatigue and optimizing rests
- upper handle is over-molded and bi-material, offering excellent grip and insulation from the cold
- hydroformed shaft for optimal grip in the middle of the shaft - Efficient placement, hooking and wedging on any terrain:
- perfect shape and balance of the ice axe provide an exceptional swing
- facilitated hooking, thanks to the curve under the head
- DRY pick is tapered at the tip (3.3 mm) and versatile across all terrain: rock, snow and ice. The 4 mm thickness of the pick makes it stronger when slotted and torqued. The serrated edge stabilizes inverted positions
- inertia and striking quality are improved, thanks to the MASSELOTTE weights
- the shape of the weights is optimized for slotting the pick in cracks - Modular construction:
- entirely modular head allows the technical aspects of the ice axe to be adjusted
- compatible with Petzl accessories: ICE, PUR'ICE, PUR'DRY, PANNE, MARTEAU
- sold with MINI MARTEAU, to protect the head and allow the user to hammer a piton back in
- without accessories, the ice axe is lighter, for dry tooling (only 550 g)
- GRIPREST ERGONOMIC handrest is over-molded and adjustable to three positions, to adapt to all hand sizes, even while wearing gloves. The absence of a steel point on the lower part gives better protection if the axe comes out of position
