hello everyone,
im interested in buying a set of ice tool .
i have been using rental tools when climbing - Petzl Quarks which i liked quit a bit. but i this year i want to have my own.
im usually mountaineering, Alpine climbing and ice climbing. not dry tooling . this year my climbing "outings" will be a ice climbing in the alps in the winter and summer technical mountaineering in the alps as well.
i was very interested in the Petzl Nomic (after reading very good reviews) but im a beginner climber so i dont know if they would prove to be too technical and professional for my level of climbing. although i understand the nomics can be used in the alpine climbing as well.
also the Ergo and the black diamond fusion appears to be more dry tooling oriented.
will the nomics suit me? or will be an overkill for my abilities?
should i buy Petzl Quarks? or BD's Cobra?
is there something i missing?
any suggestions for me?
thanks.
