Avalanche safety is tremendously important to us, and we understand the intensity of mountain riding better than anyone else. We saw the need for a durable, snowmobile-specific avalanche vest/backpack to offer the ultimate in protection from trees, rocks, handlebars, and avalanches. This brought us to industry-leading Alpride airbag technology, which we built into a compact backpack for mountain riders. The protection vest is designed around a multi-use electronic airbag system.
