Ghost Evo Ice Axe - Adze

The G-bone Shaft is a specially designed part of the ice axe that features a unique shape and side grooves. This design enhances the strength of the shaft while keeping it lightweight, making it easier to handle during climbs. A strong yet lightweight shaft is crucial for mountaineers, as it provides the necessary durability without adding unnecessary weight to their gear.

The adze is a tool located on the opposite side of the pick of the ice axe. It is used for chopping and cutting into ice or snow, which is essential for creating steps or anchors in icy conditions. Having a reliable adze allows mountaineers to navigate challenging terrains more effectively and safely.

CE EN 13089 certification indicates that the ice axe meets specific European safety standards. This means the product has undergone rigorous testing to ensure its safety and performance in mountaineering conditions. Choosing a CE EN 13089 certified ice axe gives you peace of mind that you are using equipment that adheres to high safety standards.

The UIAA 152/Type B classification signifies that the ice axe complies with international safety standards set by the Union Internationale des Associations d'Alpinisme. Type B indicates that the axe is suitable for specific types of climbing, ensuring that it is reliable and safe for your mountaineering activities. This classification helps you choose the right equipment for your climbing needs.

An ergonomic grip is designed to fit the natural contours of your hand, making the ice axe more comfortable to hold and use. This feature reduces strain on your hands and improves control, which is especially important during long climbs. A comfortable grip allows you to maintain better focus and performance while navigating challenging terrains.

The combination of a G-bone Shaft, effective adze, safety certifications (CE EN 13089 and UIAA 152/Type B), and an ergonomic grip ensures that you have a reliable, safe, and comfortable tool for your mountaineering adventures. These features work together to enhance your performance, reduce fatigue, and increase your confidence while tackling icy and challenging environments.
