Black Diamond Equipment Adds to its Alex Honnold Signature Series for Spring 2019

April 1, 2019

SALT LAKE CITY, April 1, 2019 – Black Diamond Equipment^®, a global innovator in climbing, skiing and mountain sports equipment, introduces its latest addition to the Alex Honnold Signature Series.

“The process is never easy,” explains Black Diamond athlete Alex Honnold. “And sharing your vision can be scary. But developing a game-changing product is always worth it.”

“Black Diamond’s reputation for building products that showcase innovation, clean design and quality manufacturing for users that demand the highest levels of performance continues with the launch of the Alex Honnold Signature Spatula,” said Kolin Powick, Black Diamond Equipment’s climbing category director. “Plus, we were excited about the opportunity to partner with the Honnold Foundation and provide 100% of proceeds from these spatulas to support their mission of promoting solar energy for a more equitable world.”

Black Diamond’s goal with the Alex Honnold Signature Spatula is to drive awareness to the Honnold Foundation within the outdoor community, as well as provide a spatula built for adventure. The spatula is designed for any climber’s cookout, whether you’re in sub-zero temps, gearing up for a winter expedition, or flipping pancakes on a portaledge.

“We combined dual-density over-molding and high temperature-resistant silicone with a flex-tapered asymmetrical blade that intuitively molds to the shape of any pan, slips under a portaledge pancake yet is strong enough to handle a steak, and maneuvers whipped batters, liquids, and, of course, Honnold’s pre-sending staple: scrambled eggs, with ease,” Powick added.

Black Diamond climbing product engineers incorporated a comfortable, grippy soft-touch silicon handle that’s heat resistant, ergonomic and features Honnold’s iconic signature. Other spatula features include:

• 100% of proceeds support Honnold Foundation to promote solar energy for a more equitable world
• BPA & BPS Free
• Heat Proof to 550° F
• Solid silicone blade and handle prevent damage and won’t scratch delicate cookware
• Fiberglass core – provides better heat resistance and longer life
• Durable unibody design
• Features Honnold Foundation logo
• Honnold Signature Verde color
• Lifetime Guarantee
