What shovel fits in a Boss seat?

[1M800]

Pretty much what the title says. I have a new Boss seat with a shovel pouch but I don't want to order a shovel until I know what will fit in it for sure.

S.O.S shovel head fits in the top piece that flips back,the shovel handle fits into one of the side holes and the probe into the other.

I ask this question a while back. I was told to"push it in hard" the first time. I did it worked It helps if you hold Up as you are "pushing" it will be knocking some foam out of the way. anyway I got mine to fit. I have a pretty big SOS shovel and it fits fine

Thanks. Is anyone using a Voile? If so, what one are you using?

If you want my opinion i wouldn't carry your shovel or probe on your sled. i always keep mine in my backpack because you never know when your going to need your shovel or probe and your sled isn't there. for instance, it getting buried in an avalanche. Thats just my opinion.

 

[1M800]

Yes, I know and I was waiting for someone to reply with this response. We don't ride in avalanche prone areas. We don't have probes and beacons. We use our shovels for digging out when we get stuck.

I bought a Voile tele-pro...it doesn't fit. Whoops I guess I'm going to look for a S.O.S. From the info I can find on the web both the Voile and the full size S.O.S. have the same size scoop. But the Voile scoop doesn't come close to fitting in my shovel pouch.

 

[1M800]

Any other suggestions? The Voile I got the scoop and the handle are too big. What is everyone else using? Where did you buy them?

 

[1M800]

No one else has a shovel in there Boss seat? I need some suggestions.

Unzip that puppy and dig out the foam until your handle fits.

Unzip that puppy and dig out the foam until your handle fits.

I could do that for the handle, but the scoop doesn't fit in the pouch either.

Black Diamond fits like it was made for it.
