Product description

DMM Apex Ice Axe 50 cm Green

Despite its aggressive appearance, the DMM Apex Ice Axe 50 cm Green is comfortable across a wide variety of terrain. The shaft curve has been precisely designed to give clearance and stability on steep ground while remaining effective when plunging, daggering and moving on easier angled snow slopes.

The Apex is fully T rated, and the head and handle are double riveted onto the lightweight aluminum shaft. This robust construction lets the Apex handle the burly nature of winter climbing

The hot forged handle also strikes a balance between performance and versatility. A straight design with a spike on the base makes plunging the Apex into snow and ice easy when moving on less steep terrain. The upper and lower hand rests allow hand matching, crucial to the Apex’s performance on steeper ground.

Features

  • Dual handrests for leashless climbing - Dual handrests allow techniques such as matching, maximizing the performance of these tools when leashless climbing on steep terrain.
  • Removable pick weights allow customizable balance - Picks feature removable weights that adjust the balance of the swing. Adding weights helps the pick cleanly strike hard ice, while removing them reduces weight for mixed climbing and dry tooling.
  • High clearance shaft maximizes performance on steep terrain - The curved shaft of the axe creates clearance for reaching over bulges on ice and rock, allowing you to climb on steep ground more easily. It also reduces the angle of the handle when the axe is hooked on a feature, making climbing on steep terrain less tiring and more secure.
  • Full strength clip in point allows use of axe as an anchor - The clip in points on the base of the axe handle allow the axe to be used as an anchor. Inboard eyelets can be threaded with cord for attaching Freedom Leashes.
  • Supplied with Grippy Grip Tape for extra handle grip and insulation - Grip Tape lets you insulates the axe shaft, protecting you from hot aches and allowing more of the axe to be used as a hold.
  • Shaft and picks T rated for durability - DMM axes are T rated, making them tough enough for modern mixed climbing techniques.
  • Picks laser cut from steel for strength, and CNC'd for high performance in frozen turf and ice - Steel picks are strong and highly durable. They are laser cut, and then CNC machined for high performance on ice, frozen turf and rock.
  • Interchangeable picks for improved performance on either ice or mixed terrain – The ice pick has a pronounced taper to its point, for efficient penetration of thick ice and reduced dinner plating. The Mixed Pick has a less tapered profile to increase hooking stability and the durability of the point when torqueing in cracks.
  • Spike gives security on low angled snow slopes - The spike allows the axe to bite into ice and break through snow, giving you greater stability when walking and plunging.
