Collecting every piece of gear takes a little time.
We think it's worth the wait.
Nice choice!
Give us a moment to collect those options for you.
X Monster is a technical tool designed for ice climbing, dry-tooling, for those who love to go beyond their limits. The shaft is made of a steel plate, very resistant and with a very pronounced curvature. The slight elasticity of the shaft can help in use, especially while using in the cracks. One-piece forged steel head, available in adze or mini-hammer version.

CertificationCertificationsThe main climbing gear certifications are CE and UIAA--and normally the UIAA creates the rules that the CE body also supports. When possible, we try to list all the certifications the product carries. To sell a climbing product in Europe, the device must be CE certified. There are no official requirements to sell climbing gear in the US. The UIAA certification is a voluntary process. Learn MoreRock and Ice Certifications Guide |
