TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Diameter and probe tip

The diameter of the cone-shaped tip is larger than that of the probe. This allows a larger hole to be made, so that the probe can easily penetrate the snow accumulated by the avalanche.
The probe is made up of 7 strands and has been designed with a diameter of 12.5mm to guarantee greater resistance when probing in hard snow.

Quick unfolding

In a single movement, the probe unfolds and the strands quickly interlock. The cable and automatic locking system simplify the unfolding action, thanks to the shaft with shoulders located inside the last strand.
4 possible levels of tension: the tighter the cable, the stiffer the probe.

Grip

A long foam handle is glued to the last strand of the probe to make it easier to grip when wearing gloves.
A synthetic handle is sewn onto the cable for rapid deployment of the probe.

Did you know?
It is advisable to keep your gloves on when probing to avoid contaminating the area with odors other than those of the victims.

Marking

For effective probing and to know the depth of the victim, the strands are marked every 5cm, with more visible markings every 50cm.

The safety pack

The mountains are magnificent adventure terrain, but they need to be explored with great care:
The minimum safety pack to accompany you on your mountain outings is an avalanche transceiver (DVA) + probe + shovel. But just because you have all 3 products doesn't mean you're absolutely protected.
