| REACTOR AIRBAG | The Reactor airbag system was developed to prioritise three essential criteria: weight, practicality, and comfort. This backpack features a dual airbag with a total volume of 150 litres combined with a dual inflation system. The shape and positioning of the airbags have been designed to maximise the buoyancy effect in an avalanche. The inflation system has been engineered to offer a compact and lightweight product (650g), while optimising performance in real-life situations. All these innovations have been the subject of three patent filings. It is possible to detach the Reactor system from the backpack to transfer it to another compatible pack. |
