The website shows last year model as hydration compatable...is this true?

Well, it's kind of true. According to BCA is was "compatible", but not without some modifications. I think that statement is kind of misleading, I will remove it from our site.

This year's model has a zippered shoulder strap, inside it you can fit the hose to the hydration pack. It's definitely a nicer setup for hydration.

I got the pack! Great service and fast shipping, I'll buy again from snowbigdeal.

The pack is very well built, high quality and has a very nice fit and finish. I haven't test fired it yet, I plan on doing that this weekend.

Thanks again Cade!

$200 more for waterproof zippers and hydration compatibility?? What happened to affordable?

Just when I was thinking my life was worth $500

man I agree with Joel 100% I was going to buy one until they raised the price....now you may as well as purchase the tried and true airbags that retail for about $900 that have a bigger airbag-after all its the amount of air in the bag~vs~your body weight that keeps you on top of the snow!!!! BIGGER BAG EQUALS MORE CHANCE OF STAYING ON TOP, in my mind the extra $200 is well worth it, plus they have much more bag sizing options also!

Got any pics of the inside of the pack? Where are they putting the hydration bladder?

 

[akturbo]

Click the pic on my last post, it'll open up a slideshow. It looks like the bladder floats in the main compartment.

I opted for the newer bag, there should be updates that aren't covered in the marketing material. Could be an extra stitch here or there, different materials in places(all assumptions here), etc. Not having an original version to compare to I'm happy to have this new bag.

edit... going to start a new thread so not to derail this one.

Does BCA have any plans to make a smaller pack in the future? 30L is bigger than I need.

Yes, but that is all I am allowed to say.

Yes, but that is all I am allowed to say.

Can't give ANY sort of time frame? This year or not.....

Thanks for at least keeping me from selling my last years model to get this years.

 

[SnowBigDeal]

It won't be this year for sure, MAYBE next year, but that still isn't certain yet either.

what is the weight limit of the rider for this air bag ,and is their a room for shovel in this backpack?

There is room for a shovel and a probe. You just need to make sure your shovel handle isn't too long.
