When it comes to avalanche and freeride products, the Snowpulse backpack from Switzerland is the product that is causing quite a stir.
The function is similar to the tried and tested ABS backpack, with the difference that the SnowPulse is also designed to protect the user from mechanical injury, as the airbag inflates from the chest to above the head. The SnowPulse system will be available from winter 2008/2009 in most European countries and costs just under 800 ? or 132
