Black Diamond Deploy 3 Shovel BD1021750000ALL1Experienced skiers and rescue crews know you should never head out into the backcountry without a ski or avalanche shovel. An essential piece of gear in the backcountry skier and first responder’s pack, the Deploy 3 Ski Shovel could save your life or a friend’s life if an avalanche was to strike. Because there’s never much warning before an avalanche rolls, emergencies happen quickly and the window to act is small. That’s why the Deploy 3 deploys instantaneously with a trapezoidal curved-shaft design made for quick digging in deep snow.
