Grivel Matrix Light

ProLite Gear

The Matrix Light was made to answer demands for a simple, affordable tool that performs well enough to use confidently on difficult alpine routes but is light enough to stash in the pack “just in case” or to complement a classical ice axe. The tool weighs in at 520g and features a one-piece, hot-forged Chro-Moly steel head, a real spike, and adequate clearance to wrap around features one might encounter on moderate to hard alpine terrain. The head is the same used on the proven X Monster tools (Christophe Profit used X Monster during his 10th ascent of the Eiger north face, Matteo Giglio used X Monster and Matrix Tech during his 10-hour winter ascent of the same face). The shaft is light alloy and T-rated (400kg). One may climb leashless with Matrix Light by adding either Slider or Horn or go old-school using the Tech Leash or Easy G leash.
