Mammut Ride R.A.S. 22L Airbag Backpack (Cartridge Included)

You thought you'd done everything right, checked the avy report, analyzed your snowpit data, done a ski cut. Three turns in, though, the snowpack fractures and starts to move with you in it . . . Instead of trying to outrun the slide or just hanging on and praying, you've got the Mammut Ride Airbag R.A.S. 22L Airbag Backpack on. A quick pull on the release handle fills the 150 liter bag within 3 seconds, tilting the odds of survival in your favor by floating you toward the surface of the slide. The design of the Mammut airbag system also helps cushion and protect your head and neck from impact. The Mammut Removable Airbag System (RAS) uses a refillable air cylinder (comes empty) and can be removed for days when you think the avy danger is negligible or you need more space. Expensive? The first time it saves your life, it'll be worth it.
