Laser Speed Ice Screw

The Laser Speed Ice Screw is specifically designed for quick and efficient use in thin and technical ice conditions. Its unique tri-toothed drill design allows for faster penetration into the ice, ensuring a secure anchor point while minimizing the time spent placing the screw, which is crucial for safety during climbs.

The tri-toothed drill features three sharp points that help the screw bite into the ice more effectively. This design reduces the effort needed to screw it in, allowing climbers to create a secure anchor quickly, which is especially important in challenging ice conditions.

The flexible crank allows climbers to apply force more comfortably and efficiently when screwing the device into the ice. This flexibility is particularly beneficial when working with hard or sculpted ice, as it helps reduce strain on the climber's wrist and provides better control during placement.

The color-coded identification system allows climbers to quickly and easily identify the length of the ice screw they need without having to read labels or measurements. This feature saves valuable time during climbs, enabling climbers to focus on their ascent rather than searching for the right tool.

A progressive ice screw is designed to perform effectively across a range of ice conditions, particularly in thin and technical ice. This term indicates that the design has evolved to meet the needs of climbers facing various challenges, ensuring reliability and performance in demanding environments.

While the Laser Speed Ice Screw is optimized for thin and technical ice, it can also be used in a variety of ice conditions. However, for optimal performance, climbers should consider the specific characteristics of the ice they are encountering and choose the appropriate gear accordingly.
