Features

Highlights:

  • Avabag Litric airbag system: electronic, lightweight and reliable
  • Back and features specially tailored to touring
  • Versatile: compatible with all Avabag Litric Tour and Freeride Zip attachments

Versatile and lightweight: The Avabag Litric Tour 40 is a ski touring backpack with a Litric avalanche airbag system. From quick after-work sessions to multi-day tours: Just one Base can be used to attach various sizes of Avabag Litric Tour and Freeride 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.

The base comprises a back element and airbag system and 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 electric 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.

AI FAQs

AI generated FAQs about the Avabag Litric Tour 40

How do I know what size I need for my frame?

This pack has a regular torso length designed for 16–19 in torsos. Its full-contact light back system is built to sit comfortably for ski touring.

How much does this add to the weight I'm already carrying?

The Avabag Litric Tour 40 weighs 2,460 g, or 5.4 lb, with the Avabag unit. That weight includes the electronic avalanche-airbag system in a 40 L ski-touring pack.

Will this airbag fit with my other avalanche safety equipment?

The pack has a separate safety compartment plus an additional compartment for emergency equipment. Those dedicated compartments keep emergency gear separate from the main 40 L storage space.

What do I need to do to use this airbag when an avalanche hits?

You use the Litric system’s activation handle after charging the electronic system via USB-C. The system is designed for intuitive operation, including charging, the LED display, the activation handle, airbag packing, and the leg loop.

How do I practice deploying this without wasting it?

You can test the Litric system’s activation any number of times at no additional cost. Its electronic, cartridge-free design avoids cartridge replacement and disposal when you practice activation.

How does cold weather affect whether this will work?

The Litric electronic airbag system has an operating temperature range of -30°C to +45°C. That range is suited to very cold ski-touring conditions down to -30°C.

Does this come ready to use, or do I need to buy parts separately?

The Avabag Litric Tour 40 includes a Litric electronic avalanche-airbag system as part of the pack. You can fully charge the system in about 25 minutes via USB-C before use.

How often do I need to replace the gas cartridge?

This electronic Litric system uses supercapacitors instead of a gas cartridge. You do not need to replace or dispose of a cartridge.

Are there any rules about flying with this or transporting it?

The cartridge-free Litric system is marked airplane-ready and has no stated travel limitations. Its electronic design eliminates cartridge weighing and disposal concerns when you travel.
