Promotion Petzl Summit Classic Mountain Axe

The Summit Axe is performance-ready and was designed for classic mountaineering. It’s lightweight and curved for the necessary clearance for climbing. Enhance your climbing experience with Summit Axe.

Features:

• Lightweight ice axe, but with enough weight in the head for good anchoring power
• Shaft ergonomics:
  – 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
• Pick and adze in hot-forged steel, ensuring solid anchoring:
  – pick is thin (3 mm) and toothed at the tip, ensuring good anchoring qualities in hard snow and ice
  – pick is thicker in the middle to favor anchoring in soft snow
  – teeth on upper part of pick strengthen the hold on the ice axe in piolet-rampe mode
  – durable spike in stainless steel for very good penetration in hard snow and in piolet-canne mode
• 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 anodized finish for excellent protection
  -handle is cut into the adze to create a better grip
