Product description
The Arpia from Skylotec is a lightweight and compact ice axe for ski and freeriding tours as well as moderately steep glacier and alpine tours. Its ergonomic stainless steel head piece is complemented by a lightly serrated pick that optimally penetrates hard snow, a short and slightly curved aluminium alloy shaft, and an adjustable holder that prevents snow from accumulating. In addition, the Arpia ice axe owes its high stability and clean finish to the innovative composite technology with which it was manufactured.
