Backcountry Access created the Float 36 backpack for ski guides, avalanche forecasters, and dedicated ski bums who wouldn't think of stepping into avy terrain without an airbag pack. If you find yourself going for a ride just pull the oh-crap handle to deploy the airbag. This bag adds buoyancy to your body to keep you on top of the slide and protects you from debris. While it's not a guarantee for survival, it's a whole lot better than your well-worn lucky rabbit's foot.
