In the extreme situation of an avalanche, every second counts. Rescuers need to be able to rely on their equipment without having to read long explanations. The Raptor avalanche shovel was developed for exactly these situations.
Thanks to sliding tubes, Raptor is ready for use in no time: one handle is enough to unfold and lock the shovel. The ergonomic design fits perfectly in the hand of both right- and left-handed people. The integrated T-handle close to the shovel's center of gravity relieves the strain on the front hand. This allows snow to be moved more efficiently and with less effort. The size, shape and material of the shovel blade are optimised for both snow cutting and lifting. The integrated sliding tubes enable a compact pack size. Newly developed features and striking graphics give Raptor an independent, athletic character.
