- Ergonomic design: The forward offset and angled shaft provides an optimized fit and maximum comfort.
- Incomparable stability: Maximum load-bearing capacity and durability thanks to a ductule and robust polycarbonate matrix.
- High break resistance thanks to unidirectional carbon fibers.
- Well protected: A Vibram® rubber sole on the underside of the shaft protects the carbon and ensures a firm grip on branches.
- Sustainably produced: State-of-the-art manufacturing techniques, short and preferably regional supply chains, fair working conditions in a German production facility and a high-quality, durable product with available spare parts for easy upkeep, ensure the smallest possible ecological footprint.
Pads Plus
- Additional padding for the shin and calf is provided with a foam plate that is 50% larger than its predecessor.
- The Pads Plus encloses almost the entire leg.
- An optimal fit in the shell and ultimately on the user’s leg is achieved by a grid structure of the pad.
- The grid structure leads to a punctual pressure distribution, which gives the user an increased subjective feeling of comfort.
- 0.8" thick foam cushions every pressure point and impact.
Premium Gaffs
- High-quality steel precision casting from southern Germany.
- Special heat treatment that creates a structure with an excellent compromise between hardness and toughness.
- Rockwell C hardness (HRC): 50
- PTFE is widely known as Teflon, a highly developed plastic that drastically reduces friction and breakaway torques
- Easier release of the gaff from the wood saves force and stress.
- Pre-sharpened, extremely sharp gaffs are ready for immediate use.
Lower and Upper VELCRO Straps
- High-quality, extra-wide lower and upper straps with Velcro® brand fasteners
