Learn how to sharpen ice axes, crampons, and ice screws

I’m Ludo! When I’m not in the mountains in January, you’ll probably find me by the ocean or deep in the forest!

I’m passionate about nature, woodworking, metalworking, and low-tech projects, and I love passing on my knowledge, learning from others, and sharing simple, authentic moments.

Through my workshops, I invite you to discover my world, get your hands dirty, and let your creativity run wild in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. 🪵

And to extend the experience, the ocean is just a 10-minute bike ride from the workshop, with a great surf spot and a crêperie right next door!

I look forward to meeting you and sharing a great time together! 🌊

Part of staying safe in the mountains is keeping your gear sharp. It’s convenient to hand your gear over to the pros, but there are at least two downsides: it’s expensive, and it ties up your gear when you’d rather be out in the mountains. In 2 hours, I’ll teach you how to properly sharpen your ice axes and crampons, and in an additional 1.5 hours, how to sharpen your ice screws (which is a bit more technical). I’ll also share gear recommendations and tips and tricks for recovering your gear after run-ins with rocks. Note that I’m recommended by Petzl for sharpening this equipment.
