DMM Deadman

When winter climbing, there can be times when the only thing to lodge an anchor into, is the snow itself.
The DMM Deadman improves on the classic ice-axe belay by creating a larger surface area that increases resistance to the placement pulling through. Used in snow gullies and below cornice top outs, the DMM Deadman creates protection out of nothing when needed most, in the most insecure areas of the mountain.

**Features**

*Large surface area creates resistance to pull through even in soft snow*

- The large surface area of the Deadman resists being pulled through snow more effectively than an ice axe. This makes it the best option in soft snow conditions, where almost nothing else would provide security.

*Lightening holes reduce weight*

- The Deadman features holes that reduce weight while retaining performance in marginal snow conditions. This means the Deadman won't weigh you down on the mountain where it might be the difference between having some protection and none at all.

*Stainless steel striker plate protects Deadman from wear and tear*

- A stainless steel striking area protects the Deadman from damage when hammering it into the snow, and resists corrosion from the wet winter environment.

*4mm galvanised wire creates strong attachment point*

- A steel wire loop allows the Deadman to be buried deeply beneath snow while retaining an accessible and strong attachment point.'
