Black Diamond QuickDraw Carbon Fiber Probe 230 - For skiers who count every gram, this lightweight probe reduces weight without sacrificing the strength or stiffness necessary for slicing through ice chunks and setup snow. Featuring our new QuickDraw system, the Black Diamond Carbon Fiber 230 incorporates a rapid deployment stuffsack, speed cone ferules to accelerate assembly and a non-slip grip. Stiff, ultra-light carbon fiber tubes provide durability and strength and metal inserts at each joint reduce flexing. This probe is marked every five centimeters.Weight: 230 g Length: 230cm Tech Tips: The QuickDraw system has the best length-to-weight ratio of any probe available. The cable and locking mechanism are housed internally so there are no buttons to accidentally collapse the probe, allowing even the top section to be used. The oversized tubing that accomodates the QuickDraw system results in a stiffer, straighter probe for accurate probing without added weight.
