Hi Chucky P! We are finding the fit volume is similar to the Quattro. Width-wise, it is wider than the XT, and slightly wider than the Quattro. Compared to the original F1 it is lower volume and slightly narrower :)

Got it! All of the probes we sell will be shorter than your current G3 when collapsed. The Mammut 240 light is the shortest when collapsed at 39 cm, all of the Mammut Speed Lock Probes (280 and 320) are 44 cm, and the ARVA Rescue 300 is 43 cm. If you're looking for the most bomber locking mechanism I would look at a Mammut Speed Lock, or the ARVA. Their locking systems are very similar, with indistinguishable differences in deploy times. The ARVA does have the added benefit of a braided wire cable covered...

Hi Thomc, Most of us here in the Wasatch and areas with deeper snow packs, tend to feel much more comfortable with a probe >280 cms, as having a survivable burial deeper than 7.9 feet is very possible. Worth noting, the "Speed Lock system" mentioned by Hayden is not featured on the 240 cm probe, which has a simple tension lock to save weight. I would agree it is a very smooth reliable system, and is what I use and trust with my partners' lives. The ARVA Rescue 300 Probe, is also a very solid probe, a nice ...

Hi Adam, Any crampon lacking a toe bar such as these camp crampons, will not work. The ski walk mechanism also is an issue with some crampons with longer lock levers, primarily in smaller shell sizes (

Hey Quinton, The 145 mm x 150-160 cm would work to be trimmed to either board. Using one pair of skins for two boards can be tricky unless they have the same shaping, though... looks like those boards are 31.2 / 25.9 / 29.4 for the Weston and 31.2 / 26.4 / 29.6 for the Cardiff (Tip/waist/tail). If you were to trim the skins to your Weston, on the Cardiff you would lose a little bit of grip/edge control.
