Weight is distributed towards the tip of the pick: efficient swing, powerful striking and precise placements. Pick designed to correspond to the handle's multiple grips: stable placements, each grip position corresponds to a specific tooth on the pick for increased holding power, geometry is engineered to reduce pick shift when changing hand positions. Grip size can be adjusted: three positions to accommodate different hand sizes or glove combinations. GRIPTAPE on the upper handle provides good grip and thermal insulation.
