Quickdraw Pro Probe 280

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I keep the Quickdraw Pro Probe 280 in my avy kit because it deploys reliably and packs small. The one-pull stuff sack system makes for quick setups in practice scenarios, and the stainless steel cable gives it solid tension even after tons of use. It’s super durable without feeling bulky in the pack."

When seconds matter, we rely on gear that’s ready the moment we need it. The Black Diamond Quickdraw Pro Probe 280 is a staple in our avalanche safety kit for its fast, intuitive deployment and proven durability. Whether we're navigating complex terrain on a guided hut trip or just ticking off storm-day laps with the crew, we count on this mid-length probe for its ease of use and compact storage.

Black Diamond builds this probe from tough aluminum with seven durable sections joined by a stainless steel cable. It assembles in a flash with a simple, one-pull system that deploys directly from the integrated stuff sack, so we’re ready in a heartbeat during rescue drills or real emergencies. With clear depth markings and tight ferrule connections, it's a daily driver probe we trust in the field.
