Perfection is in the details

Quick, lightweight shovel with a sturdy blade and telescopic shaft for ski tours

Extremely lightweight, compact and functional: Our SHOVEL PRO LIGHT is the perfect companion for all ski tourers who want to be lightweight on the go, but place high demands on their equipment! 

We have used innovative materials, modern production processes and carefully considered notches in the shovel blade to create a lightweight avalanche shovel that weighs in at only 440g – without compromising on rigidity. For the shaft of the shovel we have used high-quality 7075 T6 aluminum that is both very light and extremely strong. For the blade we used the 6061 T6 aluminum. Thanks to the telescopic, rapid-closure shaft, our lightweight avalanche shovel can be quickly adjusted. And its practical switchover function makes it suitable for both left and right-handers.

The pack-friendly blade on our SHOVEL PRO LIGHT has step grooves to stop your foot slipping when digging. A sharp, sturdy cutting edge guarantees optimum performance. High sidewalls and a pronounced center ridge on the blade provide the necessary rigidity.

Thanks to notches in the material, the SHOVEL PRO LIGHT is not only lighter but also suitable for building a rescue sled or for use as a snow anchor. It is also compatible with the PRO ALU III shaft and fits in all ORTOVOX backpacks.

Our SHOVEL PRO LIGHT is the perfect companion for light sheep on ski tours, because with less weight on his back he can use all of his energy for great adventures in the snow.

Achtung! Man wirbt im Produktvideo zwar mit der Räumfunktion aber wenn man genau aufpasst benötigt man den Griff eines anderen Modells, bzw. kann dies für unverschämt viel Geld nachkaufen! Ich fühle mich dadurch getäuscht. Sonst als reine Schaufel natürlich ein sehr gutes Produkt. Warning! The product video advertises the clearing function, but if you pay close attention you will need the handle of a different model, or you can buy one for an outrageous amount of money! I feel deceived by this. Otherwise, as a pure shovel, it is of course a very good product.

Danke für dein Feedback, allerdings schreiben wir das Produkt korrekt aus. Es tut mir leid, dass du dich getäuscht fühlst. Unter den Produktfeatures sowie im Text wird das Produkt genau und korrekt beschrieben. Es wird darauf hingewiesen, dass die Schaufel mit dem PRO ALU III Schaft kompatibel ist.

The perfect shovel! The PRO LIGHT, when used alone, is compact, lightweight, and an effective shovel. It’s ideal when conditions are unlikely to require a shovel but you of course must bring one. What really takes this shovel from great to perfect is the cross compatibility with the PRO ALU III, allowing you to mix and match to dial in the perfect weight and feature combination.

I am also confused about the clearing function. As it is in the box (pro light 2.1 with pro light handle), there is no such function. At least stop promoting it on the instruction card. Otherwise it's fine. It's a nicely built, lightweight shovel I guess :D I am also confused about the clearing function.

The shovel is light and good engineered. The only thing I cannot understand is that it advertises a shovel and clearing functions but the clearing function is not applicable for the shovel I got.

Ich würde an eurer Stelle mal das Produktschild, das an der Schaufel dranhängt, mit den "Instructions to use" individualisieren. So habt ihr immer enttäuschte Kunden, weil es das Feature gar nicht gibt und seid im Erklärungsnotstand. Regarding the misunderstanding of the clearing function: If I were you, I would individualize the product label that hangs on the shovel with the “Instructions to use”. So you always have disappointed customers because the feature doesn't exist and you're in need of explanation
