powderhound Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 (edited) Here is what climbing mag says about them: Summary: The Xeno is a solid tool that could move up in the rankings with some minor modifications. The shaft has a radical bend that delivers excellent clearance and a smooth swing. The grip is dimpled for decent control, and the pinky shelf supports the hand well, though the shelf’s metal should be insulated to allow climbing with thin gloves. A coating protects the pick from corrosion, but it flaked off after a few trips up the ice. We also would have preferred slightly more aggressive teeth on the pick, and a more pronounced bevel. You’ll most likely want to replace the binding, circulation-reducing leash. Pros: Excellent clearance. Smooth swing. The leashes have been replaced as mentioned in the review, other than that they swing a lot like the quarks. Yours for the low price of $225 plus shipping Edited March 12, 2009 by powderhound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
