Shovel Badger Safety Blue

Designed for demanding mountaineers, ski tourers and rescuers, the Shovel Badger Safety Blue snow shovel from Ortovox stands out for its aggressive character and exceptional power transmission to size ratio.

With its light weight and a telescopic handle measuring 70 cm when extended, it is built around a compact blade of 27.5 × 21 × 4.5 cm with a surface area of 580 cm². The structural rigidity of the blade is maximised thanks to raised sides and a pronounced central rib, preventing any twisting or mechanical deformation during intense shovelling in icy or heavily compacted snow.

Designed for maximum shovelling efficiency in avalanche emergency situations, this shovel features a bend-resistant mechanism that ensures quick and secure assembly. Its ease of use is enhanced by an ergonomic handle that allows direct thrust and optimal force transfer. In the field, the sharp edges effectively cut through hard ice crusts, while the top of the blade is equipped with anti-slip grooves providing a secure foothold to drive the blade into hard snow.
