The Zoom+ avalanche rescue kit gives beginners an economical way to escape the hustle of the slopes & discover the backcountry air. We chose the components to be highly intuitive so they can be easily mastered even in stressful situations. The included Safety Ac ademy Guide Book explains the ground rules & reveals a great deal of background information on the complex topic of avalanches to help ensure that the transceiver, probe, & shovel are not even needed in the first place.ZOOM+ The ZOOM+ combines the simplest handling with the latest technology & the most advanced design. Reduced to two functional buttons, the ZOOM+ concentrates on intuitive usability. The focus on the clearly designed LED-display is on the on / off switches & the switch between transmitting & searching. Distances, directional arrows & information about several avalanche victims guide you in the quickest way to the refined search area, with the intuitive search acoustics making victims easier to locate. Equipped with the patented SMART-ANTENNA-TECHNOLOGY, avalanche victims are found much better with the ZOOM+. The device analyzes ist position in the avalanche & automatically switches to the best transimission antenna. The latest digital 3-antenna technology is taken for granted at ORTOVOX just as much as the aut omatic switch over in case of a follow-up avalanche. Badger The BADGAR is a super lightweight aluminum shovel with an ergonomic, hybrid grip for maximum power transmission. Its sizable blade volume of 2.5 liters is backed up by robust design, pronounced center ridge & high side walls for full rigidity. Non-slip grooves on the top edge of the blade provide adequate traction when wearing boots. A centering aid in the shaft socket facilitates rapid assembly.240 Economic The beginner's probe with a very low weight. With a 240 cm length the Economic weighs just 230 grams. This is achieved by an aluminum tube with a diameter of 11 mm. The probe is stretched classically with a screw cap, in which the Kevlar draw line is clamped.
