Our new 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 our legendary D-2 EXT “Dozer” shovel. It’s so popular among our core followers, we’ve named our entire new line after it! BCA was the first to create an avalanche shovel with a non-round shaft, to prevent breakage while prying. We’ve taken our groundbreaking oval design and added a concave radius on both sides, to make it even stronger, without adding weight. Tightly toleranced “variable offset” sliding surfaces between the inner and outer walls of the extendable shaft prevent ice buildup, for reliable deployment.
BCA shovel blades lay flat in your pack with no protruding ferrule or “neck,” leaving more room for other backcountry essentials (and luxuries too!). The front third of all blades offers a smooth surface for clean snow pit walls during snow stability tests. All BCA extendable models are designed to meet the UIAA standard for avalanche rescue shovels. T-grip handle
