320cm Deep-Snow Rescue Probe. Carbon Rigidity & Rapid Quick-Lock System.
Engineered for avalanche professionals, guides, and backcountry searchers in deep snowpack regions, this professional 320cm carbon probe delivers maximum rigidity and lightning-fast deployment. Constructed with large-diameter carbon segments and an aramid tension cord, it eliminates flex when probing hard avalanche debris. Its Quick-Lock assembly system snaps tight in one fluid motion, while clear depth markers and a bright orange bottom segment ensure fast, precise depth readings during critical Monashee rescues.
320cm Extended Length: Crucial reach for deep interior BC snowpacks, professional snow-profile study, and deep burial recoveries.
Large-Diameter Carbon Construction: 13mm carbon tubing maximizes torsional rigidity and minimizes weight, ensuring straight, deflection-free probing through dense snow layers.
Quick-Lock Assembly System: Speed-deployment tensioning lock engages instantly with a single pull, securing the probe fully rigid in seconds.
Aramid Tension Cord: Extremely strong, non-stretch aramid core cord maintains reliable tension without fraying or snapping over seasons of heavy use.
Visual Depth Markings: High-contrast depth scale along the shaft provides instant depth readings to determine exact shoveling strategy.
Intuitive Color System: Bright orange bottom segment clearly identifies when you are approaching the victim, speeding up fine-search decisions.
Oversized Probe Tip: Slightly wider tip diameter cuts a clean hole larger than the shaft, reducing drag and increasing sensitivity when making contact.
In deep BC interior snowpacks like the Monashees, standard 240cm probes often fall short during deep burials or complex profile work. The Carbon 320+ gives you extra reach while remaining featherlight, and its stiff 13mm carbon build stops the shaft from bowing underground—ensuring your probe tip travels in a true straight line directly to your target.
Based in Vernon, BC, Attridge Ski & Board is your source for technical backcountry safety equipment and professional avalanche gear. We stock the Ortovox Probe Carbon 320+ because local guides, search teams, and serious splitboarders heading deep into Monashee backcountry require uncompromising probe stiffness, instant deployment, and extra reach when every second counts.
