Product information "Ortovox Carbon 280+ PFA Black"

Carbon is light and stiff, making it the ideal material for our high-end probes. The lightweight carbon probe has a length of 280 cm and has all the features of a real professional probe. It is extendable, making it the probe of choice for many rescue organizations and mountain guides. The 13 mm diameter in combination with the carbon material makes it incredibly rigid, unbreakable and accurate. It also has a steel cable tensioning system, which guarantees maximum rigidity. Thanks to the PFA quick-release system, it can be clamped in seconds and released and folded just as easily. The rubberized handle also ensures safe, ice-free handling in all conditions.
Like all our probes, the CARBON 280+ PFA has a visual guidance system with depth markings and a clear 1-meter marker. It also comes in the optimized quick-release cover.

BE FAST

That's what it's all about. With every detail. We develop highly specialized probes for a wide range of needs and user groups. The desire for PRECISION and SPEED is our premise, because this can save lives in an EMERGENCY. We focus on detailed solutions that make rescues even more intuitive and, in combination with avalanche transceivers and shovels, lead us to the buried victim faster.

PFA quick-release system 2.0
The successor to our often copied quick-release system has become even slimmer and therefore more PACK-FRIENDLY with the same infinitely variable clamping performance. The probe can be clamped directly from the sheath thanks to the NEW QUICK-CLAMPING LOOP. It is released by pressing your thumb against the system cover.

Ergonomic handle
The thin and light rubber coating ensures a perfect grip for quick tensioning of the probe.

Visual guidance system
The intuitive visual guidance system gives you a quick and clear indication of the PROBE DEPTH at all times. Thanks to the clear 1 m marking, the CONTRAST-RICH DEPTH SCALE and the COLORED END SEGMENTS, you can OPTIMALLY ADAPT your SHOVEL STRATEGY and save important time. The lowest, neon orange segment shows you when you are approaching the victim.

Quick-release sleeve
The quick-release loop enables immediate OPENING AND TENSION WITH ONE HAND GRAB, without having to remove the probe from the sheath first.
Voluminous probe tip
The significantly larger diameter than the probe elements promises better penetration.

Ortovox Peak light 32 Black Raven
This summer, the big alpine challenges are calling you. Whether on the Dent Blanche surrounded by mighty glaciers or on the towering Weisshorn in the Valais Alps - our new PEAK LIGHT is THE companion for demanding alpine tours. It is EXTREMELY LIGHT, TECHNICAL and even MORE FUNCTIONAL with the new SWISSWOOL-TEC-KNIT BACK SYSTEM. SWISSWOOL-TEC-KNIT BACK SYSTEM The SWISSWOOL-TEC-KNIT BACK SYSTEM stands for the innovative synthesis of a TECHNICAL FOAM BACK with THERMO-PRESISTANT SWISS WOOL, covered with a 3D HIGHTECH KNIT. The wool pads are used zonally in contact areas with the back and store large amounts of moisture without feeling wet. REDUCTION FOR LIGHTNESS The PEAK LIGHT combines STABILITY, COMFORT AND LIGHTNESS. The 1100 g* total weight can be reduced by a further 380 g* by REMOVING THE LID, HIP LOCK, ALUMINIUM BACK RACK and various external fastening options. 720 g* minimum weight thus extends the range of use from long alpine tours to many alpine rope lengths * +/ - 4 % due to production and material fluctuations. FURTHER FEATURES The PEAK LIGHT 32 for men is our alpine lightweight and made for demanding alpine tours. Thanks to the extremely tear and abrasion-resistant Nylon 420D Oxford material, the backpack is very robust, but still extremely light. The nylon fabric is one of the lightest materials used in our backpacks. At the same time, the material is PU-coated and therefore water-repellent. The new triangular design of the lid allows variable adjustment when attaching ropes etc. without slipping. The lid can be completely removed or stowed in the main compartment. If it is stowed in the main compartment, the zipper on the lid can still be opened without any problems. The lid compartment has two compartments. The taped seams make the lid completely waterproof. With the PEAK LIGHT, we have concentrated on the important features and dispensed with the unnecessary. Of course, the PEAK LIGHT has important features such as the rope and ice axe attachment, load control straps, helmet net, gear loops, hip pocket, a map pocket and the all-round zipper for quick access to the main compartment via the front. Safety equipment is held securely inside thanks to the safety attachment. The Ortovox backpack standards also include an emergency card, chest strap with signal whistle, compression straps, bright interior colors, hydration system preparation and a ski holder. The well thought-out features, low weight and innovative back system make the rucksack a highly functional alpine touring rucksack for alpinists, in which doing without means more function.
