CAMP 2972 CORSA ULTRALIGHT SKI MOUNTAINEERING AND GLACIER ICE AXE

The CAMP Corsa model offers extraordinary lightness in ski mountaineering and glacier travel. This is because the brand produces this equipment using 7075 aluminium entirely in the head and shaft sections. In particular, this innovative design instantly lightens the load in your backpack. At the same time, the equipment weighs only 202 grams in the 50 centimetre length.
 
In addition, despite this ultra lightweight construction you safely use the axe for anchoring and self-arrest manoeuvres in snow. Consequently, with this tool that meets the EN 13089 Type 1 standards you always guarantee your safety. A Nylon Plug and a Machined Grip Surface On the other hand, there is a lightweight nylon plug at the lower part of the shaft.
 
In other words, thanks to this practical part you definitely prevent snow from getting inside the shaft. What is more, the brand specially machines the lower part of the shaft for an excellent grip. You even grip the axe extremely firmly with your gloved hands thanks to this textured surface. In this way you completely eliminate the risk of the axe slipping out of your hand on demanding hiking routes.
 
Accessory Compatibility and Usage Limits In addition, on the head section you find a small slot for the Corsa Leash safety leash. Indeed, you easily attach this leash, which you buy separately from the equipment, into the slot within seconds. Even so, you do not forget that the brand definitely does not recommend using this model on vertical ice falls, on mixed terrain or for intensive step cutting.
 
In short, from three different length options of 50, 60 and 70 centimetres you immediately choose the one suitable for your height. As a result, with this hyper lightweight tool you reach your summit goals with great energy.
