the T and B rating is for the pick but also shaft and they can be rated independently. B rating (type 1) is tested to 280kg on an ice axe's pick and shaft and a T rating (type 2) is 400kg on its pick and shaft.
I met you matt in Chamonix this summer at the Arcteryx Alpine Academy. We were having a chat on the steps of the Alpine village and i was saying how much I've learned in the 3 years I've been climbing from you and your team at epic tv.. I have been snow boarding for 16 years and have now taken to climbing particularly Alpine and this winter sees my first Scottish winter climbs starting in the Cairngorms. Your knowledge experience description and advice have allowed a battered snow boarder to become an avid climber with dreams of many Alpine adventures. Thank you!🗻🤘
Thank you for explaining B and T ratings. I’m buying beginner gear and after several videos no one explained the rating system until I found your video.
Black Diamond used to make a carbon fibre shaft, I think the COBRA, its been a while but I always found the carbon fibre versus the metal shaft absorbed the shock when placing in hard ice and didn't bounce out as much.
One point about the carbon fiber shaft. They tend to absorb shock when the pick hits the ice and therefore do not bounce out as much. They hold on a first swing.
@@malwinatarka1052 No experience with recent Grivel gear. I do recommend carbon fibre shafts though. Go borrow some at an ice festival and try them out.
This is a great video. I've been climbing snow slopes but I've been using my crimp ons or snowshoes and I was a bit lost with the cost and my local outfitter I felt was just trying to sell me something
I didn't think Petzl endorsed using the nomic for mixed/dry tooling... Pretty sure they don't accept returns for them if they've been used for it anyways.
I'd like to see more development in the ambitious-but-not-yet-an-expert mountaineers section of ice axes... Not everyone who climbs North faces does so on the Matterhorn or Eiger. Lots to be had between those and the Cosmiques ridge. Been on expeditions where people just had two Petzl Gullies bcause they're so light and arguably 'just hard enough for north face ice, but not for waterfall ice'. Can anyone here confirm? I usually grab my heavy BD ice tools but they're often a little overkill. What axes do you use on alpine ice&snow graded AD+ to TD-... any hot tips?
Error on the B/T (1/2) rating. Walking axes only have shaft ratings for belaying off. The pick doesn't have a specific rating. Climbing axes have a T (2) rated shaft. Also B rated picks (for climbing axes) are better for pure ice climbing as they're skinnier than T rated picks.
Ice axe in carbon for north faces? i really thnik it is not very suitable, regarding the fact that carbon fibers are more fragile than steel . A little lateral impact on the ice axe ( rock fall, a fall of the lead climber) and it is broken. On a big commited, difficult north face, it is really not good at all.
@@spruceg00se huh.. well you know i was a part of a mountain club and go to Lesotho for snowboarding some years and somehow I had no idea. Now I actually want an ice axe.
i think like ice and snow the best axe will probably be determined by degree of steepness of the grass more straight designed for under 60 degrees, can switch to more curvey shapped ones when approaching almost vertical grass.
Ice climbing seems like the sketchiest kind of climbing ever and I really doubt I'll ever choose to do something that puts sharps so close (so vigorously!) to my rope, but ice axes just look like really awesome tools. Deep water Ice Soloing does not seem like a great solution to reduce kutzing up one's safety gear..... unless... how big can you make a hot tub? Science demands an answer.
Honestly, am more worried about the trash quality ice I'm climbing that could go bye bye at any moment, lol. Luckily, dry rope treatment often accompanies greater abrasion resistance, seeing cut tests on those rope it'd be pretty hard to cut them casually with ice tools.
Dry-tooling ... nah i'm joking. I guess they needed to find a way to allow Lara to do cool crazy jumps and climbing without having to spend a ton on animating it all nicely. They tried doing that in Tomb Raider Underworld but the the problem there was that the holds never looked natural so i guess to save themselves the hassle and because they thought it looked really cool they gave here the picks instead.
All those models (maybe not BD) been there for quite a while. Cassin Xdreams are my all time favourites (thou being considerably ligter than even nomics, which makes you swing harder but they are so so comfy)... When opening this vid I expected to see some "newest" models - but it is ok for tech to go slow (he-he, tell it to belay/rappel devices of last decade))))
Hello, and thank you kindly for the good video on ice axes. I'm wondering if you have tried the Montbell Japanese made Ice axes? and if so what you thought? Thank you kindly
"You could probably still do that [the normal route on Mt. Blanc] with an old fashioned ice ax" Why probably? Is there any doubt? Would having become accustomed to "non-old fashioned" axes render a person incapable of doing the route without said "non-old fashioned" gear?
Warning: I'm not an alpinist, never been in the alps, I'm an Andinist who climbs mainly volcanoes (the only mountains in the southen Chile) I think that the fuels/x-dream/nomic/reactor/ergos are pretty useless, the shaft it's so curved that you can't approach the climbing, like the Puntiagudo volcano or Choshuenco volcano and that implies that you'll need another piolet like de BD Raven, and an extra 1/2 kg isn't very comfortable, I think is best to start with a Black Diamond Raven because it's really comfortable in piolet-canne position, but the Climbing Technology Alpin Tour is a really good starter all-round piolet, it's cheap and have a little curve and T rated shaft and pick (for an extra piece of mind in the deadman anchor). I've ice climbed the Osorno volcano with the CT Alpin Tour using a prusik as leash/handrest an it feels like a petzl sum'tec o a black diamond venom. But for longer climbs, like Puntiagudo, Sarnoso, La Picada or Choshuenco I'd go with the sum'tecs or grivel light machine if go in winter and prioritize the snow walking, or the black diamond vipers, petzl quark, cassin x-light or grivel north machine if prioritize the climbing (or if going ending spring in november or december), because the snow will always be there and with few exceptions you'll have to make a camp after a long aporoach throug the woods and before start walking. At the end you'll end up with one semi-technical do-everything jack-of-all-trades wakling piolet and a dusty pair of not-so-aggresive climbing piolets that will be used in very few and specific summits. That's my advice for experience as a southern andinist for the Northen Patagonia/Lake District/Austral Andes/Southern Volcanoes.
You are missing the point regarding nomic like ice axes. These are specifics tools, made for very steep overhanging ice climbing and mixed routes. They do not seem suitable for your practice indeed, but they are far from useless
Those axes are for Waterfall ice climbing, or even mixed climbing in the ergo's case. Not for mountaineering at all. You're talking about the wrong tool for the wrong sport.
10:55 so the carbon shaft tool weighs 400 something grams, my austrialpin vampire weighs 700gr per axe. and I weigh over 100kg even if i'm ripped.. now that really is a buying point considering carbon can't be fixed or tinkered with once broken its pure trash. i hate tings made of carbon. and people who buy them. i don't trust people who trust carbon. carbon is for gear-nuts. LOL
Nice to watch a good survey on this gear. I dig the gear though not an ice climber. I bought a LePrade Desmaison, aneto (FR) back in '81 or '82 at a small climbing shoppe in Calgary AB (Canada.) from a cute gal with rockin' quads. I picked up two Charlet Moser 'axar's' ( T 4x4) with the leashes and recurve picks. 1.3kg the pair.
The quark is the bomb. I've done everything with this axe and did not feet like I needed more specific stuff. Nice video for someone looking to enter into alpine world.
I own both Quarks and Nomics and the Nomic's use starts where the Quark's ends. Once you start climbing steep, articulated ice (WI5 and above) with cauliflower-like blobs or steep drytooling or mixed climbing the Quarks are quite useless. Knuckles will be bashed and pump will be had.. However Quarks are my go-to ice tool of choice on lower grade icefalls up to WI4+ and everything alpine. They are very versatile! All depends on the technical level you're climbing.
@@ThomasWuyts Maybe I don't do hard enough climbs. Calling them useless seems like a strong word. th-cam.com/video/QMMGFZh6wwI/w-d-xo.html this looks like quarks in a not that friendly mixed terrain to me :p
I don't understand why the grovel x-blade is discontinued. They are dirt cheap, really nice and aggressive and light. Just bought me a set of 80 euros a piece and they are marvelous. Regarding cold handles, the first thing I do with my axes is add tennis racket tape above the handles so you can hold the axe higher with increased grip and better insulation.
Have a set of Petzl Quark. Works fine for ice climbing up to grade IV. Mostly you don't bang in those blades if there is features in the ice, you can just place them. Saves alot of energy, to when you really have to use force. But when normal glacier walking I use a straight alpine axe.
Just one concern about the grivel North Machine. That is it does not have a trigger for the index finger to increase traction as you can find on the petzl Quark for example. To me it may be a big limitation and so comparing the North Machine to the Quark again I tend to think that the latter are more techinal and versatile. Am I wrong?
Thank you for sharing, how I'd wish to learn how to use them, for now it's impossible since I leave in the tropics (Philippines 🇵🇭) maybe in the future cheers mate.
I have been roaming around an unclimbed mountain in Swat Pakistan since 1999 but have no choice to Climb it bcz of the very expensive mountaineering equipment. Yesterday I ordered a coppersmith to make handmade ice axes for me with a price of 15 Euro only but both of the blades weigh more than 1100 grams, however made of iron not steel.. but they are thick and strong... This June i intend to Climb that 22000 feet high mountain.. simply to ask you will they work...? Secondly what will one do on a steep icy cliff if her/his ice axe or crampons are broken?
@@TheGrapefruit11 sorry for the late reply... Actually I have never used ice axes before that is why dont know whether to suggest the Black Diamond or the Pakir... I am like a passenger waiting for suitable ride or pick up whether it is offered by a bike rider or by a plane pilot.. i will thankfully accept whatever offered...
Grivel Jorasses 2.0 my top pick...although I only used it twice on our always smaller local Marmolada glacier it did the job very nicely!! Nice video but horrible music!!
Google algorithm: Do you know what kind of ice pick you need?
Me: No, but I'm willing to learn even if it's never relevant for my entire life.
yes
I don't ice climb, why am I here?🤔

the T and B rating is for the pick but also shaft and they can be rated independently. B rating (type 1) is tested to 280kg on an ice axe's pick and shaft and a T rating (type 2) is 400kg on its pick and shaft.
So you’re saying I can rappel off of either?
@@samuelbuettner1214 yes you can use a can B rating (type 1) for general mountaineering, T rating (type 2) is just stronger

I didn't think Petzl endorsed using the nomic for mixed/dry tooling... Pretty sure they don't accept returns for them if they've been used for it anyways.
Can y'all please do a gear show about the different kinds of fruit Boots that exist? No one has a full list comparing them
Petzl nomic was that axe for me. Swung it once and I was in love. It was the first gen too, the new ones are better
Informative 👍.
Can anyone please tell me about ice axe shaft,if the aluminium shaft is a tube, hollow inside or solid piece?
I will never have a use for a ice axe I live in central Texas but still watching this outta curiosity sakes

Whice ice axe do you need? All of them. They make every adventure involving ice & axes better. 😅
Take the most aggressive and hit me with it, if I consider ice climbing.
Never going with a light axe. Knew a guy skiing mount blanc and his pick snapped off and sent him off a cliff. Use a heavier axe that’s more durable.
Error on the B/T (1/2) rating. Walking axes only have shaft ratings for belaying off. The pick doesn't have a specific rating. Climbing axes have a T (2) rated shaft. Also B rated picks (for climbing axes) are better for pure ice climbing as they're skinnier than T rated picks.

It's actually Carbon Composite, so Carbon Fibres wrapped around Aluminium. Stronger than either individually, and lighter than full Alu.

My Petzl Summit does great on grass/tussock aproach climbs in New Zealand! :D

You need one of the heavy ones then
