OrtovoxCarbon 280+ Pfa - Avalanche probe

Weighing just 355 g, the Carbon 280+ PFA probe by Ortovox is an efficient, lightweight, and high-end avalanche probe, perfectly complementing your avalanche safety gear, which includes an airbag backpack, an avalanche transceiver, and a shovel. The segments, with a total length of 280 cm, can be assembled very quickly in case of emergency. As a true professional avalanche probe, the Carbon 280+ PFA can be extended if needed. Its 13mm diameter combined with its carbon structure makes it incredibly rigid, robust, and precise. Additionally, its steel cable tensioning system ensures maximum rigidity. Thanks to its PFA quick-locking system, the Carbon 280+ PFA can be assembled in seconds and just as quickly unlocked and stored. Its optimized, anti-freeze handle ensures a secure grip in all conditions.

PFA 2.0 quick tensioning system: The 2.0 version of our often-copied quick tensioning system is even sleeker and more compact, offering unchanged rapid assembly performance. Thanks to the new tensioning strap, the probe is tensioned as soon as it is removed from the case. It can be loosened by simply pressing the thumb on the cap of the system.

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 neon orange lower segment clearly shows when you are approaching the victim.

Quick-Release case: The quick-release strap allows immediate opening and tensioning with a single gesture, without needing to remove the probe from its case beforehand.

Large probe tip: A significantly larger diameter than the other segments of the probe ensures better penetration.
