The Alu 240 Light probe, developed by the brand Ortovox, is an avalanche probe that complements the avalanche safety equipment consisting of an airbag backpack, an avalanche transceiver (D.V.A), and a shovel. Lightweight at 235 g, it assembles in seconds thanks to its quick-tension strap and Quick-Lock locking system. With its optimized adjustment screw, you can easily and quickly adjust the tension. It features a large tip, with a slightly larger diameter than the rest of the probe, allowing for better penetration in the snow. Compact, the Alu 240 Light probe fits easily into your ski backpack. It is essential if you venture off the beaten path!
Intuitive guidance: The intuitive visual guidance system provides a quick and clear indication of burial depth at all times. The significant marking at 1 m, the contrasting depth scale, and the last colored segment help optimize the digging strategy, saving valuable time. The fluorescent orange lower segment clearly shows when you are approaching the victim.
Quick-Release case: The quick-release strap allows for immediate opening and tensioning in one motion without needing to remove the probe from its case first.
