Blue Ice Choucas - Ski Mountaineering Harness

Blue Ice Choucas - Ski Mountaineering Harness

The reference in harnesses for classic mountaineering and high-alpine skiing for over 10 years.

The Choucas range is the Blue ice heritage harness: designed in 2012, Blue Ice have improved it over the years to launch this forth version to the  acclaim of mountain guides. For this season, Blue Ice are giving it a bit of a refresh with a new and extended colourway. Beyond the colour change, there are minor changes in its geometry to improve the in-movement and hanging comfort.

Much lighter (142g in S) and more compact than other classic mountaineering harnesses, this latest version is still comfortable with its wide waist belt. It is the ultimate alpine harness for competitions, ski touring and glacier approach.

Its features and equipment make it the ideal harness with its four large gear loops, two ice screw slots on the waist belt and two more on the leg loops. You can put it on with your feet on the ground, with skis or crampons, and easily adjust the tightening at the waist, thanks to its new waist speed buckle.

Climbing Safety Equipment (PPE): Safety equipment can only be returned on strict conditions. Equipment must be returned as received with all labels tags and undamaged packaging on the product.
