At 440g it's the call for tourers counting grams and anyone who carries a shovel as insurance rather than expecting to use it daily in a professional context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe blade is AL 6061 T6 with subtle notches and ribbing that maintain stiffness without the material mass of a thicker blade. At 2.7 litres per scoop it moves less snow per stroke than the Pro Guide or Pro Rescue, but the difference matters most in a sustained group rescue. For a solo tourer or a recreational group, it's more than adequate. The shaft uses a unique non-circular cross-section that increases strength over a standard round or rectangular tube and locks into place without a button. Switchable for left and right-handed users. Fixing holes in the blade allow construction of a rescue sled or use as a snow anchor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Pro Light doesn't have a hoe mode. For the skier who wants an effective, packable shovel without carrying a gram more than necessary, it's the right tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e2026\/27 update: new striped colourway on the shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight: \u003c\/strong\u003e440g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade: \u003c\/strong\u003eAL 6061 T6 | notched and ribbed | fixing holes for rescue sled \/ snow anchor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.7L\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShaft:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unique cross-section | quick-lock | no button required | left\/right switchable\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHoe mode: \u003c\/strong\u003eNo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCertification:\u003c\/strong\u003e UIAA 156\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ortovox","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50410830561385,"sku":null,"price":99.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2091\/3261\/files\/shovel-pro-light-one-size-deep-black-377468a8fe4b9eb64460caa7903b3eac-1920x1920BackgroundRemoved.png?v=1790215877","url":"https:\/\/skiuphill.ca\/products\/ortovox-pro-light-shovel","provider":"SkiUphill | RunUphill","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
