Trango Raptor

I used the Raptor on 50+ pitches of ice last year, from alpine multi-pitch to ice cragging, and it held up to the beating just fine. The Raptors are neither light nor heavy, clocking in at around 20 ounces without the pick weights, which is industry average for a tool in their class. The pick weights come stock with the tool, though I removed them and never put them back on, mainly because the tool’s weight was distributed evenly without them.
