Mechanical airbag backpack pack -
The Airbag Switch Adventure Bundle (Ride 18 + ST35 Black) from Arva is a modular airbag backpack designed to suit both freeride days and long technical mountain outings. It combines the RIDE18 cover, with a compact 18-litre volume, with the interchangeable ST35 SWITCH COVER, which provides a 35-litre capacity to carry more equipment. Thanks to the SWITCH system, it is possible to change configurations while keeping the same airbag base.
It features the REACTOR 2.0 airbag system, equipped with two independent 75-litre airbags. Weighing only 650 g, this removable system has an ergonomic deployment handle and allows training for deployment without a cartridge. It operates without electronics or batteries and is compatible with ARVA REACTOR backpacks.
The fabrics used for the ST and RIDE ranges are 100% recycled. They use recycled polyamide 6.6 as well as recycled polyester in 150D and 300D. The backpacks are also designed without PFCs.
WARNING: the cartridge required for the airbag to function is not included.
