Skylotec Asgard ice axe

The Asgard by Skylotec is a versatile technical ice axe designed to safely tackle snow couloirs, moderate north-facing walls, and mixed ridges. This essential tool for classic and technical mountaineering features an ergonomic stainless steel head characterized by a hand rest and a reduced thickness central section, ensuring optimal grip during both ascent and descent. The robust yet lightweight serrated blade is designed for impeccable penetration in hard snow and ice, while the durable shovel allows for effective step cutting during progression. The handle is made of anodized lightweight alloy with a curvature at the top that facilitates movement, while the base remains straight for easy penetration into the snow. To maximize performance, the end of the handle has a rough finish that increases grip, supported by the adjustable Handy hand rest that provides a secure hold in the most challenging passages. A practical pictogram indicates the correct point for use as an anchor or deadman, while the stainless steel spike is equipped with a hole for carabiners or slings. The innovative bonded assembly technology reduces weight and increases waterproofing, offering excellent protection against oxidation in lengths of 50, 60, and 70 cm.
