"Easy to use and light weight great for your first backcountry kit."
"A well built avy probe with a good locking mechanism- easy to deploy and looks to be strong for years of use"
"Never had to use in an actual avalanche situation. But in practice it pops together really easily, much more so than the black diamond equipment I used in the past. It locks in place well, and appears to be sturdy. Hopefully it never gets used for real. I've been backcountry skiing for a 5 years and this is my favorite probe I've used."
"Great product."
"The probe does exactly what it's intended to do, seems to be high quality after one season."
"It’s sturdy and reliable great for avalanche rescue and digging pits"
"Lightwieght probe. Use this throughout the Sierras"
"Probe seems easy to use and reliable. I trust steel more than aluminum. Also, imo, it doesn't make sense to get a probe shorter than 320 cm. If you need the extra length, you will be glad to have it!"
"This probe is fast and light, and the speed lock works very well. Night and day difference from my old probe. I would highly recommend this for anyone looking for a top of the line probe."
"I have used this probe a handful of times in practice for my AIARE class and in the beacon parks. My instructors recommended the slightly longer length compared to some of the kit ones. Marking on it are clear and I have been able to throw deploy and tension it as fast as any of the probes that were being used. Mammut makes great products. Ill updated again at the end of season as I intend to practice more as the season continues."
