Petzl Summit Evo Ice Axe

Write a Review

Description

1. Lightweight ice axe, but with enough weight in the head for good anchoring power
2. Hydroformed handle for good grip at the curve, and a technical design :
   - the upper part of the shaft is curved to offer good clearance when climbing
   - the lower part is straighter and guarantees efficient penetration in snow 
3. Head and pick in hot-forged steel, ensuring solid anchoring :
   - thin (3 mm) pick, durable and toothed at the tip, ensuring good anchoring quality in hard snow and ice
   - pick is thicker in the middle to favor anchoring in soft snow
   - teeth on the upper part of the pick strengthen the hold on the ice axe in piolet-rampe mode
   - a durable spike in stainless steel for very good penetration in hard snow and in piolet-canne mode
4. High strength and practical aspects :
   - very durable steel adze offers a comfortable support surface, and the design of the edges allows stairs to be carved efficiently
   - tilted adze directs the axe correctly into the snow (piolet-canne usage)
   - head and spike equipped with holes for clipping a carabiner or attaching a sling
   - high-quality aluminum shaft (7075 aluminum, used in aeronautics), with an anodized finish for excellent protection
5. Ice axe compatible with LINKIN leash
