Light, rigid, and exceptionally fast to assemble: the Carbon Probe 280 Speed Lock is all about speed and performance in the most complicated scenarios. Our probes have a singular purpose, and that&';s what they are designed for, down to the very last detail. High-quality carbon provides a rigid and lightweight construction for the Carbon Probe 280 Speed Lock. The glove-friendly, high-tensile telescopic Speed Lock system is specially designed for a quick, reliable assembly. On extension, an audible click tells you the probe is tensioned correctly and fully engaged. The ergonomic handle can be clipped onto the extended probe, keeping it out of the way while in use. The enhanced, 360 degree visual depth guide ensures you always have the right information to hand, while the shaped tip has been designed to cut through debris efficiently, saving energy when probing. The bottom section of the probe is highlighted orange for a visual guide as you near a buried victim. In an emergency situation, every second counts, which is why our avalanche equipment meets the highest possible safety standards. All Mammut avalanche probes are UIAA certified for efficient rescue, durability, and ergonomic handling.
