How to use

Adjust shoulder straps, sternum strap and hip fins to achieve a snug, wobble-free fit before setting off. Use the main compartment for clothing and larger items, and store shoes or technical equipment in the bottom compartment for quick access. For ski touring, attach skis diagonally using the sliding loop around the ski ends and secure the tips with the bungee cord hooked to the shoulder strap. The removable foam back pad can be taken out for drying or when packing bulkier items close to the back.

Recommendations

For best performance, pack heavier items close to the back and secure them with the hip fins tightened to transfer weight to the hips. Use the bottom compartment for skins, crampons or wet items to keep the main compartment dry. Rinse and air-dry the pack after exposure to salt, sweat or dirt; avoid machine washing to preserve fabric and fittings. Regularly check attachment points and the bungee system before ski touring.
