The AK37-X is available in two back-lengths; regular and long.

It's constructed from waterproof and incredibly durable haul bag fabric and features a stand-up bottom with a full-length side zip for easy access to all your gear. A large zippered front flap stashes your flip-flops, lunch and layers, while internal zippered organizer pockets accommodate for your keys, phone and other small essentials. A tuck-away rope strap secures your cord, and the stowable rain hood doubles as a helmet holder.
The Crux 3G AK37 RT is an incredibly tough, yet lightweight rucksack made from a 40% Kevlar® and 60% Cordura® composition with a minimalist waterproof design. So you don't need an extra waterproof bag liner which adds weight and annoyance. With very few seams and composed with 40% Kevlar, this pack is likely to last you for ages and will thrive where most normal rucksacks will perish.
The Black Diamond Ultralight Ice Screw is the lightest ice screw in the world. 45% lighter than Black Diamond Express Screws make these guys ideal for fast and light Alpinism and ski mountaineering or for those that need to carry large racks of screws for top end winter climbing. Ultralight screws feature an aluminium body with steel tip to shave weight and retain a keen cutting tip. The innovative wire-gate Express handle folds out and has two different clip-in positions with color-coding to help differentiate length.
The Black Diamond Viper has an adjustable upper hand rest which is easily secured or released with a quick Flick Lock system. The hand rest can be as low as the TPU hand grip or as high as the shaft mid-point. The hydroformed shaft extends through the grip for maximum rigidity and a responsive feel and as before the Viper still has a clip-able spike so it can be clipped with the Spinner Leash amongst other things. The Black Diamond Viper provides good all-round performance for ice and alpine climber.
The Blue Ice Aero Lite Ice Screws have been built with an innovative 3-tooth steel bit for technical mountaineering and are the lightest ice screws currently available on the market. The body and hanger have been made with aluminium to minimize weight, whilst the foldable crank is stainless steel. They are available in 4 lengths of 13cm, 16cm, 19cm and 22cm.
The Blue Ice Warthog 40L has been built for serious alpine use and has innovative hybrid laminated shoulder straps that are inspired by climbing harnesses.
