Built to utilize the innovative BD Integrated Component Exchange (I.C.E.) system, the Hydra Ice Tool can be configured to maximize performance on any technical winter terrain. From water ice in the Alps, new lines in the Alaska Range, or technical mixed climbing, the Hydra tool accepts a full suite of I.C.E. accessories—including picks, hammers, adze, head-weights, spikes, and grip spacers—allowing you to customize your tool to match any mission. The tool’s hydrofoamed shaft is ergonomically designed for steep technical climbing, from overhanging waterfall ice to hooking through mixed terrain. Plus the grip can be fine-tuned to fit your hand and has options for a lower spike or lower pommel. Includes a light and heavy head-weight set, 4mm and 5mm wrenches, and grip spacers.
