Burton ak 23L Backpack: Some say the best turns are the ones you earn…maybe, maybe not. Either way the Burton ak 23L Backpack offers options when it comes to hauling gear uphill, including a low-profile Sled-Ready Horizontal Board Carry™ as well as a super secure vertical board carry. External probe storage and convenient shovel pocket keep tools at the ready, because if trouble strikes, every second counts. Additional amenities include a fleece-lined pocket perfect for goggles, sunglasses, or GPS, easy hydration sleeve compatibility, and a triple-pack compression system to keep everything cinched tight. Low-bulk and light weight, it’s a favorite for team riders Terje Haakonsen, Jeremy Jones, Jussi Oksanen, and Frederik Kalbermatten when the day involves dipping out of bounds or hopping on the heli.
