BLACK DIAMOND Express Ice Screw 19Cm, No Color, One Size

Purchased for a bit of a non-traditional use. That is, tying my light airplane down when i overnight or go to lunch after landing on frozen lakes here in Wisconsin. I just took a chance on this product, and although they are a bit expensive, they work great. Easy to turn into the ice, extremely secure, and the hole is large enough to fit some tie down rope through. After reading reviews of other ice screws, I sprang for the extra bucks for these and am very happy.

Quick and easy to screw into the ice. Works great for snowkiting self launching/landing on frozen lakes. It's nice not having to worry about the kite getting blown away.-set up kite and lines (make sure kite is well anchored before leaving it unattended).-screw in ice screw.-hook ice screw to chicken loop (I use about 4ish feet of climbing rope with a carabiner on each end).-set kite on edge of wind window on its side.-walk back to chicken loop and strap in snowboard or skis.-hook chicken loop to harness.-disconnect carabiner from chicken loop.-go snowkiting.

The BD express screws are definitely not the cheapest screws but you really get what you are paying for here. These screws are so easy to get in - the teeth are strong and I have even driven one into rock (the ice was thinner than I thought) and the screw held up fine.

This company is very good to work with. The product is the standard by which ice climbers judge their saftey. Other products will have to prove themselves. If they don't--damn that hurt.

Good to work with. Description accurate.

keeps you alive on the ice
