Freeride ski snowboard backpack - FR 100 DEFENSE - Navy Blue

Shovel and probe pocket

One special pocket to keep your shovel and probe.

Pocket with quick opening system to access your equipment in an emergency.

Along with the avalanche transceiver, the probe and shovel are essential tools that you must be familiar with when out on the slopes/freeriding/backcountry skiing.

Carry Skis / Snowboard / Ice axe

You can carry a snowboard on the front of the bag or adult skis, one on either side, or two pairs of junior skis on either side.

Carrying them this way keeps your hands free so that you can walk comfortably to the ski lifts or get to the Freeride slopes.

An ice axe can also be carried.

Instructions for carrying skis

To carry skis on the side, place the tail of the skis in the lower strap, that adjusts automatically to the width of the skis.

Attach your skis using the adjustable side strap.

If you want you can attach your skis together using a ski strap, to better stabilise your pack.

Instructions for carrying a snowboard

Place the tip of the snowboard on the lower strap at the bottom of your rucksack, undo both side straps and attach them together to finish fixing your snowboard.

Removable back protection

The back protector can be removed if you want to lighten your bag. Warning, if you do this you will no longer have back protection.

Straps

Adjustable straps, comfortable, preformed and padded to provide maximum comfort and stability on the shoulders.

A height-adjustable chest strap, with rescue whistle, to hold your bag firmly in place on your back.

A wide neoprene waist strap to provide the comfort and support required to prevent movement of the bag when skiing. Lined with a wide strap to tighten more precisely.

Pockets

A large volume main pocket, access from the top of the bag or quick and wide access through a zipped opening on the back of the bag, ideal to pack your bag.

A secured pocket for the shovel and probe with quick ZIP opening.

A goggle pocket.

A compartment pocket in the main pocket.

Carry handle

Handle for ergonomic grip, easy transport and storage.

RECCO® system

This bag has a RECCO® reflector.

With RECCO® technology, you can be located in the event of an avalanche. Someone who is buried in the snow can be quickly and accurately located by the emergency services using the RECCO® tracker and reflectors. RECCO® reflectors are not a substitute for an AVD. The RECCO® technology works as a complementary measure, increasing the chances of being found in time.

Standard

The bag comes with foam back protection tested according to a standard (NF EN 1621-2) and compliant with European regulations. This foam aims to protect you from strong impact caused by falls when freeride skiing.

This foam is removable (BE CAREFUL no foam = no protection).

NOT SUITABLE FOR MOTORCYCLING.
