The Plume TS shovel has taken the ultralightweight Plume shovel and added a telescopic shaft making a good thing better. Like its predecessor, it is extremely lightweight, durable, and compact as the Plume but in the Plume TS, Arva has updated the shovel to incorporate even more surface area without adding weight. This creates a more efficient shovel without concerns for extra heft. Why decide between functionality and weight when you can have both with the new Arva Plume TS shovel?
- 45cm telescopic shaft fits most packs and increases length for maximum leverage.
- Aluminum oval-shaped shaft increases strength for shoveling.
- 25cm long x 21cm wide x 1.5mm thick anodized aluminum blade makes digging efficient and effective.
- PIN LOCK locking mechanism is designed for quick and easy assembly because seconds count.
- Ergonomic T-Grip handle offers great grip, no matter if you're a lefty or righty.
- Meets UIAA "156 - Avalanche Rescue Shovels" requirement.
Update 2022/23: Arva minorly changed the color but the shovel design remains unchanged.
