![]() The handle is constructed from extreme cold resistant polymer laid over the hot-forged aluminium alloy spine.Ergonomic handle with patented adjustment system to change between Dry and Ice angles. ![]() The Mixed pick is a blend between the two with similar angles to the Ice pick but only a small "hammer" plate (not really a hammer at all!) and teeth reaching further down the shaft like the Race pick. The Race pick features a sharp beak for grappling with rock along with more aggressive teeth both on the underside and topside of the pick. It also features a small hammer that adds the perfect amount of head weight for thin and brittle ice. The Ice pick brings the tip 6mm closer to the handle for performance similar to the popular X-All Mountain tool. The Ice position drops the handle for a more natural swing.Ĭlimbers can further refine the X-Dream with micro-adjustable trigger fingers (choose from two inserts – the X-Finger Small or the X-Finger Large that can be flipped over to adjust the position - included) and the removable X-Rest insert which adjusts the overall height of the handle.Īll three picks feature the refined beak and tooth configuration which Cassin tools are renowned for and they are designed to provide solid placements with minimal penetration making them the perfect choice for brittle ice and technical mixed terrain. In the Dry position, the handle kicks upward for a more down and out pull. ![]() A quick turn of the Allen bolt above the grip allows the tool to be switched between Dry and Ice positions by changing the angle of the handle in relation to the angle of the pick. It can be fitted with three different T rated picks for various types of terrain, and also incorporates a patented adjustment system in the ergonomic handle to fine tune the swing and torque even further. The X-Dream combines two tools in one – a fully optimised axe for technical ice and an aggressive dry tooling machine. Modern hyperlight, perfectly balanced, fully featured tool for technical dry tooling, modern mixed and ice climbing that has been receiving very favourable reviews - some even prefer it to the Nomic!
