Features
Electronic LiTRIC avalanche backpack with short back for ski touring.
Versatile and lightweight: The AVABAG LiTRIC TOUR 28 S is a ski touring backpack with a LiTRIC avalanche airbag system. From quick after-work sessions to high alpine ski tours right through to multi-day tours: Just one BASE can be used to attach various sizes of AVABAG LiTRIC TOUR S and FREERIDE S Zip attachments, each tailored to their intended use. The Zip is designed in such a way that, when combined, the base and the various packs merge to form a single unit.
Comprising a back element and airbag system, the BASE of the AVABAG LiTRIC TOUR 28 S has a specially designed shortened back system for smaller people. And the versatile, lightweight TOUR BASE sits comfortably thanks to the FULL CONTACT LIGHT back system.
The stowaway bag can be completely opened up thanks to its circumferential zipper and is equipped with all of the features you need on a tour: Ski, splitboard, and rope attachments, an ice axe holder and small map compartment leave nothing to be desired. Emergency equipment can be stowed in a separate safety compartment. We have used particularly lightweight but scuff-resistant materials to keep weight down to a minimum.
LiTRIC, the electronic airbag system, is lightweight, reliable and easy to use. The electronic system can be fully charged in approx. 25 minutes via USB-C and activation can be tested any number of times at no additional cost. The lack of a cartridge means: more space, no weighing necessary, no cartridge disposal, no travel limitations. The design is clever down to the smallest detail, supercapacitors are used instead of cartridges and the airbag is ultra-lightweight – making the system one of the lightest on the market. And the system is especially easy to use. From charging and the LED display, to the activation handle, to airbag packing and the leg loop: LiTRIC AVABAGS are absolutely intuitive to operate. One charge enables at least two activations. When switched ON its operation time is approx. 60 hours, which allows for multi-day tours with no need for recharging. Its operating temperature ranges from -30°C to +45°C.
Registering the system on https://www.ortovox.com/service-hub will extend its warranty from two to five years.

AI FAQs
AI generated FAQs about the Avabag Litric Tour 28 S
How do I know what size I need for my frame?
This Short version uses a shortened back system sized for 14–17 inch torsos. It is built for smaller people who want a ski-touring-specific avalanche pack fit.
How much does this add to the weight I'm already carrying?
This avalanche backpack weighs 5.2 lb (2,370 g) with the Avabag unit. That weight includes the integrated electronic airbag system for a complete ski-touring setup.
Will this airbag fit with my other avalanche safety equipment?
This pack has a separate safety compartment and an additional compartment for emergency equipment. You can keep avalanche essentials organized separately from the main touring load.
How do I practice deploying this without wasting it?
You can test the LiTRIC activation any number of times at no additional cost. The electronic, cartridge-free system lets you rehearse operation without using a gas cartridge.
What do I need to do to use this airbag when an avalanche hits?
You deploy the LiTRIC system using its activation handle with a height-adjustable release grip. The handle, leg loop, airbag packing, charging, and LED display are designed for intuitive operation.
How does cold weather affect whether this will work?
The LiTRIC system is specified to operate from -30°C to +45°C. This range supports use through deeply cold ski-touring conditions as well as warmer mountain days.
What happens to the canister if I deploy it—can I reuse it?
This LiTRIC system uses supercapacitors rather than a gas canister or cartridge. One full charge enables at least two activations, so deployment does not require cartridge replacement.
Does this come ready to use, or do I need to buy parts separately?
This avalanche backpack includes the LiTRIC electronic airbag system and does not use a gas cartridge. You recharge the system via USB-C instead of buying or replacing cartridges.
How often do I need to replace the gas cartridge?
This electronic LiTRIC airbag uses no gas cartridge. Supercapacitors power the system, and a full charge supports at least two activations.
Do I need to register this or get it inspected?
Registering the LiTRIC system extends its warranty from two years to five years. Registration is completed through the Ortovox Service Hub.
