DMM Apex

Ice tool for demanding ice and mixed climbing as well as technical mountaineering. Ice climbing in steep and challenging terrain, delicate hooks on fine tube structures and flower ice, along with energy-saving, precise placements with every strike – these are the specialties of the Apex ice tool from DMM.

The strongly curved shaft ensures that the pick finds enough grip even in overhanging flower ice. It is rubberized at the bottom and features two hand rests that allow for various grip positions and hand changes on the tool. Those who prefer to use hand loops can attach them to the head of the tool.

When striking into the ice, the Apex offers excellent balance and substantial pull, thanks in part to the additional weights already mounted on the pick. For use in mixed climbing and dry tooling, these can be easily unscrewed. The interchangeable system for the pick, shovel, and hammer head provides high versatility. The pick and shaft meet the Type 2 device standard, allowing for significant leverage while climbing without the tool breaking.
