Awesome Probe!

6 years ago

I have used this probe both while being a student, as well as instructing avalanche classes. It has had a lot of use while practicing during these classes, and it has held up awesome! I really like how easy it is to deploy. Once it is locked, it's very hard to accidentally bump the release mechanism, unlike some other probes on the market, but when you want to put the probe away in your pack, it disassembles nice and small.

Awesome Probe

Having never had to use it in an emergency, there's only so much I can say. It folds out quickly and seems quite sturdy. Probes through snow easily. Pretty light, so it doesn't feel like a burden for lightweight ski days.
