Detailed Description
The ovo-concave shaft, low-profile stompable blades, and wide range of cored-out handles make BCA shovels stronger, lighter, and more packable than ever before. This new line is inspired by the legendary D-2 EXT “Dozer” shovel. It’s so popular among the core followers, BCA have named their entire new line after it! BCA was the first to create an avalanche shovel with a non-round shaft to prevent breakage while prying. They've taken the groundbreaking oval design and added a concave radius on both sides to make it even stronger, without adding weight. Like a high-end lacrosse stick, this shape also enables better grip in the palm, reducing slippage while shoveling. All BCA extendable shovels are certified to the UIAA 156 standard for avalanche rescue shovels.
