A bluebird powder day can turn into one's worst nightmare if you happen to get caught in a sudden slide. Backcountry Access knows this and has developed the Backcountry Access Float 30 Winter Pack to help reduce or eliminate burial depth in an avalanche, and increase your chances of survival. When things go pear shaped and you're in for a ride, simply deploy the reusable 150-liter airbag and it will increase your overall buoyancy, hence helping you stay at the surface of an avalanche and minimize excavation time.
Details
- The avalanche airbag works on the science of the 'Brazil nut effect' (when a bowl of mixed nuts are shaken, smaller nuts fall to the bottom, while larger one’s move to the top)
- Reusable 150-liter airbag deploys behind the head and away from the hips and arms to help keep you at or near the surface of an avalanche
- Leg strap system helps ensure that the Float 30 stays put when in a slide
- Pockets hold your shovel, shovel handle, probe, goggles, and other small essentials
- The Float 30 includes a 150-liter airbag, pressure gauge, ejector assembly, air hose, trigger cable, trigger handle, and system fittings
- Best fits torso lengths between 17-22 inches
