Petzl Ergonomic Ice Tool

Detailed description 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
