Introducing the Quark Ice Tool - Your Ultimate Mountaineering Companion
The Quark Ice Tool by Petzl has undergone a remarkable redesign, incorporating enhanced features that make it the perfect tool for conquering steep ice and alpine terrain with ease. With its innovative design, the Quark Ice Tool sets a new standard in performance and functionality.
One of the key improvements is the addition of a collapsible finger rest, ingeniously engineered to fold up into the shaft, providing a lower profile. Equipped with a user-friendly button, it effortlessly locks into place, making it exceptionally convenient to operate, even when wearing gloves.
Not only has the handle received a makeover, but it has also been optimized for efficiency. The front and sides have been flattened into a more rectangular shape, significantly increasing grip efficiency. Additionally, the slightly roomier handle allows for a more natural hand position, reducing fatigue and preventing pump on demanding pitches.
Not stopping there, the Quark's shaft has also been updated. It now boasts a hydroformed, three-dimensional shape, optimized for navigating couloirs and other low-angle terrains. The narrower front width allows for optimal grip, ensuring stability and control when moving vertically. Furthermore, the removal of the hole for clipper leashes has resulted in a stronger overall shaft construction.
Petzl has also incorporated a nylon plastic insert between the head and shaft, strengthening the connection and resulting in a lighter head. This enhanced construction enables compatibility with a wide range of Petzl's head accessories, providing you with exceptional versatility across various terrains and applications.
