By Ranked #22 - Avalanche Safety July 12, 2011

is the handle on this tool telescopic or does it collapse in any way. I'm looking for compact yet effective gear for my avy training next season. Also, it has to be storable for split boarding. Seems like a great concept but would it work for my needs?
