Far and light: Long ski tours in remote alpine terrain require an optimal balance between weight and functionality. The answer: SWITCHBACK 25 S / 27 is a minimalist, technically sophisticated ski touring backpack with alpine features. High performance for snow, ice and rock.

A particularly practical feature: quick access to equipment. A shoulder pocket, a side compartment for crampons, sealskins and ski crampons and a rope are easily accessible without having to take off the backpack. A carabiner also allows skis to be attached parallel to the backpack while wearing it.

The main compartment and the integrated safety compartment with shovel and probe holder are accessible via a zipper on the back. A large, separate compartment provides additional storage space on the top of the SWITCHBACK 25 S / 27. Two ice axe holders, two daisy chains, a rope holder and a helmet net complement the versatile attachment options.

In case of heavy loads, the ergonomic FULL CONTACT LIGHT BACK SYSTEM distributes the load optimally over the entire back. If the backpack is not too full, the volume can be effectively reduced by means of the A-Skifix 3-point compression straps. Low weight, maximum functionality.
