The Pro ALU is the best selling avalanche shovel of all time. In this latest iteration of an Ortovox classic, they used the most innovative materials available and cutting edge production methods to achieve the best weight to rigidity ratio possible. Stabilization ribs and high sidewalls give the anodized aluminum blade rigidity, while the integrated shaft socket makes it easy to pack. With the new quick-lock, the blade and the fluted telescoping shaft can be put together in one motion. The new T-Grip Pro handle can be inserted for both right and left-handers and also facilitates economical clearing. One hand grasps the long grip side, which serves as an ergonomic lever, while the other hand has maximum hold on the shaft’s rubber-coated grip zone.
