{"product_id":"black-diamond-transfer-lt-shovel","title":"Transfer LT Shovel","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Black Diamond Transfer LT is the lightest UIAA certified avalanche shovel on the market. At 405 grams, it delivers full-sized blade performance — 550 cm² of snow-moving capacity — in a fast-deploying, packable format built specifically for ski touring, ski mountaineering, and fast backcountry travel where weight and avalanche response time are both critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLightest UIAA certified shovel available\u003c\/strong\u003e — at 405g, the Transfer LT carries the International Climbing and Mountaineering Federation's certification for avalanche rescue performance while weighing less than any other certified shovel on the market; UIAA certification provides the assurance that this shovel will hold up under the demands of a real rescue scenario.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInnovative 7075AL riveted blade\u003c\/strong\u003e — the high-strength 7075 aluminium alloy blade uses a riveted backup plate at the stress zone to allow the blade to be made thin and lightweight without sacrificing structural integrity; the result is a blade that slices through compacted avalanche debris cleanly and efficiently.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e550 cm² blade volume\u003c\/strong\u003e — a large blade area for a shovel this light, allowing fast snow removal without the inefficiency of an undersized blade; multiple real-world users report it performing on par with heavier shovels in rescue and snow pit scenarios.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo-piece telescoping aluminium shaft\u003c\/strong\u003e — the removable, extendable shaft collapses to 56cm for compact pack storage and extends to 76cm for efficient leverage when digging; the T-handle is ambidextrous for working both arms during extended rescue efforts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFast deployment\u003c\/strong\u003e — the shaft assembles quickly and reliably even in cold conditions; the neckless blade design makes stowing in a pack fast and snag-free.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% 7075 aluminium construction\u003c\/strong\u003e — the same alloy used throughout gives a consistent, high strength-to-weight ratio across both blade and shaft.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible with Transfer LT Shovel Blade\u003c\/strong\u003e — the blade is available separately, allowing a two-shovel carry system for guiding or group use with one shared shaft between party members.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNote: the collapsed shaft does not feature a locking pin — it relies on the button engagement to hold the sections together when stowed. The T-handle is not offset, which can be slightly awkward with very bulky mittens; for those regularly wearing thick expedition gloves, the standard Transfer Shovel with its D-grip may be worth considering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black Diamond","offers":[{"title":"One Size \/ Envy Green","offer_id":53549765624147,"sku":"BD102196002","price":129.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/0259\/3584\/files\/102196_3011_TRANSFER_LT_SHOVEL_ENVY_GREEN_01_d506b717-ee0d-4765-b0a7-0c7190332001.jpg?v=1776934066","url":"https:\/\/www.greatoutdoors.ie\/products\/black-diamond-transfer-lt-shovel","provider":"Great Outdoors ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
