Product description
When every last gram counts, it's time for the Ride by Petzl! This ice pick is as light as a feather and therefore just perfect for ski tours and freeriding. You're still not sure whether or not you should take an ice pick on your next tour? Let this lightweight piece of equipment make the decision for you. The edge of the pick is three millimetres thin and grinded reverse positive. Thus, it glides through snow and ice like a hot knife through butter. Made of massive steel, the pick is extremely robust and thanks to the cutouts, it is very light, as well. Moreover, the pick is equipped with a practical snow shovel.
The slightly bent aluminium shaft is pleasant to hold and with a length of only 45 cm and its bevelled tip, it fits into every backpack. Thus, the risk of injuries is reduced to a minimum and you can attach additional equipment to your backpack. The Ride by Petzl provides a perfect balance between stability and low weight!
