  • Mammut Climbing 2020 Selbsterklärend, Komfortabel, Sicher
    > MAMMUT CLIMBING 2020 SELBSTERKLÄREND, KOMFORTABEL, SICHER Kletterseile sind seit 1862 die DNA der Schweizer Traditionsmarke. Über 150 Jahre später ist Klettern Trendsport und bekommt stetig Zulauf von neuen Enthusiasten, die noch kein klares Material- Verständnis haben, deren Sicherheit für Mammut aber an erster Stelle steht. Grund genug, um die gelebte Tradition im olympischen Kletter-Sommer 2020 durch innovative Tech- nologien, neue Produkte in frischen Looks und eine neue Kletterseil-Systematik auf ein neues Level zu heben. > ALLER GUTEN DINGE SIND DREI Der neue Mammut ROPE FINDER Damit Kletter-Einsteiger wie Profis schnell und einfach das richtige Seil für den richtigen Zweck finden, geben die drei Kategorien ALPINE, CRAG und GYM künftig auf den ersten Blick Auskunft über die An- wendung: Während ALPINE-Seile beim Bergsteigen, Eisklettern auf Gletschertouren oder beim Skiberg- steigen zum Einsatz kommen, verwendet man CRAG Seile für Trad- oder Sportklettern am Fels. GYM Seile sind für das Hallenklettern konzipiert. Auch in der Frühling/Sommer 2020 Kollektion sind alle Seile von Mammut bluesign zertifiziert. Die Angabe, ob es sich um ein DRY Seil nach UIAA-Standard oder ein unbehandeltes, PFC-freies CLASSIC Seil handelt, findet sich ebenso im Namen des jeweiligen Seils, wie der Durchmesser, das Anwendungs- gebiet und die Konstruktionsart – entweder als extra robuste, langlebige Workhorse Variante oder als Sender-Konstruktion, extraleicht und hochperformant. Der Seiltyp, das jeweilige Gewicht und die Ab- riebfestigkeit sind im neuen ROPE FINDER übersichtlich mit dem genauen Einsatzzweck verbunden. Eine neue Punkte-Skala verrät zudem, wie abriebfest die Seile sind. Auch das neue Farbschema macht die Orientierung leichter: Für die ALPINE Kategorie wurden besonders leuchtende Farben wie Safety Orange oder Pink verwendet.

  • Mammut Wins Ispo Gold Award with the World's First Climbing Tracker
    > MAMMUT WINS ISPO GOLD AWARD WITH THE WORLD'S FIRST CLIMBING TRACKER THE PREMIUM OUTDOOR BRAND SWEEPS THE ISPO 2021 FIELD, WINNING AN AWARD FOR EACH SUBMITTED PRODUCT, AND REINVENTS CLIMBING. AGAIN. WITH MAMMUT CLIMBAX. 25.01.2021 - Mammut is the recipient of three awards at the ISPO Online Munich 2021 for product innovation in the category, Outdoor. The Mammut Climbax climbing tracker received the Gold Award by the international jury of experts due to its innovation and high performance capabilities. Additionally, Mammut’s «Close The Loop» T-shirt made from recycled nylon and the Ducan Boa® High GTX® hiking boot received top marks in their categories (Outdoor | Winner Award). With the new product, Mammut Climbax, available from summer 2021, Mammut revolutionizes a sport that is set to celebrate its Olympic premiere this year: climbing. As the world's first climbing tracker, Mammut Climbax enables every athlete to record and evaluate their own climbing data and compare themselves with other athletes. In combination with the Mammut Climb App, two wristbands record relevant movement data such as vertical meters, number of climbing moves, use of right or left hand, as well as active climbing and break times. The collected data allows climbers to compare their own performance with their climbing partner or the community, and to measure each other in competitions. With Mammut Climbax, the climbing community is given added value in a very specific way, and as Stefan Hauser, Mammut’s Senior Project Manager of Mammut Climbax, adds: “Mammut Climbax unites our digital competence, expertise in climbing and, above all, the desire to create a product that fully covers the needs of every climber - from beginner to pro - and strengthens the community.” Additionally, to bolster accuracy and relevance, the tracker was developed in conjunction with professional athletes, carefully considering climbing-specific needs.

  • Mammut Delta X from Summit to Summit
    > MAMMUT DELTA X FROM SUMMIT TO SUMMIT Mammut is going to unveil its brand-new Delta X collection in Berlin on July 3rd 2018, prior to its market launch in the summer season 2019. Based on more than 155 years of experience, the Swiss outdoor specialist Mammut is presenting a collection that combines functional performance and urban design. "For Mammut, the urban environment is far more than simply a new playground. Delta X marks an evolution of our brand DNA and design language from the mountains to the city – from mountaineering to urbaneering. The styles are packed with technology and functionality, this is the key requirement for the collection. Thanks to a direct link to Eiger Extreme, the Mammut Delta X collection offers performance-oriented products for demanding urban conditions,” commented Adrian Margelist, Chief Creative Officer of the Mammut Sports Group. From mountaineering to urbaneering The name Mammut Delta X stands for the altitude difference between the summit of the Eiger – the Hausberg of Mammut in the heart of the Swiss alps – and the highest summit or point of the season´s inspirational city. For Summer 2019 the inspirational city is the German capital Berlin with the Teufelsberg. For Mammut, there is an obvious link between the Eiger Extreme collection and urban style in terms of performance, innovation and functionality of the products: Mammut Delta X integrates materials such as high quality waterproof laminates, workmanship like bondings and laser cuttings on one side and technologies like the Mammut® GEORGANIC 3D Technology™ on the other side, that were developed specially for the Eiger Extreme range.
