What back packs are you guys using?

[JustinB]

Looking to buy a pack to ride with. What type of packs are you guys using?

Johnny and I both use the true north adventure gear lightning backpack. I love mine. has a separate pocket for your shovel. Expandable to hold TONS of stuff. Plus has a place for your camel bak bladder if you like to run like that.

I have the Black Diamond Covert avalung pack. It has a place for shovel and probe and also has lots of storage

might wanna look into the ogio flight jacket vest. distributes the weight more evenly around you, and items you need frequently can go in the front pockets - no pulling off your pack and diggin thru it.
has seperate compartments for probe, handle, shovel blade, hydration. been using one for 4 years now. it rocks!!

That sounds sweet, I will have to look at one of those.

My wife is an ogio dealer at her store she is going to get a price on it for me this week at her cost I will pass along the info to you guys sure she could order a few of them. Thats if she can get them I know she can get the back packs.

Abs Freeride. If you are going to spend some money, buy one that may help improve your chances if the unthinkable happens..
Otherwise, I had an Ogio DrJ? before. It was a wonderful backpack.

KLIM of course.

Had DaKine HeliPro before and loved it. ABS 30 now. Wish it was half as nice as the HeliPro but I wear it just in case

How do the packs feel as your ride I am riding with an old dakine snowboard pack and it tends to get in the way when turn to look at a line and it pinches around my neck cause the shoulder straps are to close together.

ABS 30. Gotta have all the protection I can get.

I ride with an Ogio Three 6 pack....has a slot for your shovel and water bladder. Extremely comfortable. Has been through it all and is still in great shape. Only trouble is I don't think they make them anymore.

I was given a fly racing back pack by some one on here a coupld years ago. I cant remember for the life of me who it was. If the person that gave it to me reads this thanks again. I love that back pack. The next pack I get (depending on funds) will be an ABS pack, just incase.

ABS Vario (18 L and a 30 L) great fitting pack and the option to switch cap is great.

Why wear a bag that just holds your stuff when you can get one that will help you breath or float and protect you if you are in an avalanche? Check out the avalung packs (Black Diamond) or one of the new airbag packs (BCA, Airbag Systems or Snowpulse).

 

[JustinB]

Wish I could pick up a ABS Or avalung pack but just droped the money to buy my wife and I new becons. So the ABS is a year or two or a new job.

 

[Lt Rascal]

I ride with a HMK. I like it.

 

[SnowBigDeal]

ABS Vario (18 L and a 30 L) great fitting pack and the option to switch cap is great.

Best fitting pack out there IMO......and best Airbag on the market.

I have used a Burton Snow Boarders pack for several years now and it works great. I would like to get an Avalanche inflateable pack of some kind in the future.
