Points clés

• Lightweight and with a waterjet-formed tube, the Summit Evo offers a very comfortable grip under the head of the axe
• The technical design of the curved shaft provides the necessary clearance on steep, icy terrain; the lower part is straighter and guarantees efficient penetration in snow

• Head and spike equipped with holes for clipping a carabiner or attaching a sling
• The grip of the shaft makes it a precise and efficient ice axe
