BLUE ICE Aero Ice Screw
Master the most demanding ice and mixed terrain with the BLUE ICE Aero Ice Screw, the pinnacle of performance-driven design for technical climbing. Engineered for alpinists and ice climbers who refuse to compromise, the Aero delivers an unparalleled combination of speed, durability, and minimal weight, making it an essential piece of climbing equipment for your rack. When every second and every gram counts, the Aero provides the confidence and efficiency needed to push your limits on the steepest, most committing routes.
The revolutionary advantage of the Aero Ice Screw lies in its innovative 3-tooth tip design. This meticulously engineered tip provides an immediate and aggressive bite into the hardest ice, ensuring the best quick and easy screwing from the very first turn. This rapid engagement significantly reduces the time and effort required to place secure protection, allowing you to move faster and conserve critical energy on long pitches. Its performance is so reliable, it inspires confidence even when you´re pumped and placing a screw in a challenging stance.
Ultralight Design Meets Unyielding Durability
The Aero achieves its remarkable lightness through a sophisticated thin-wall tube design, which considerably reduces the weight on your harness without sacrificing strength. While the main body is light, the crucial components—the tip and threads—are crafted from robust steel to maintain high durability and sharpness, even after repeated use in rugged conditions. This hybrid construction ensures long-lasting performance and a screw that can be trusted season after season. Furthermore, its largest diameter body offers a unique advantage, allowing climbers to securely use existing, worn-out screw holes when no other placement option is available, adding a critical layer of safety and versatility to your climbing system.
Screws Designed for Seamless Workflow
Efficiency on the route is paramount, and the Aero is built to streamline your process. Its features and design make it the ideal ice screw for the most technical routes where performance, durability and lightness are key. The integrated foldable stainless steel wire crank deploys instantly for high-speed placement and retracts cleanly to remain snag-free on your harness. For a positive grip in any condition, the highly textured crank knob ensures secure handling, even with bulky gloves or in wet, freezing environments. Organization is simplified with a smart color-coding system on the hanger and knob, which allows you to instantly identify the length of the screw you need, saving precious time when selecting protection.
