Ortovox Switchback 32

Whether long ascents or steep couloirs: ski tours in alpine terrain require optimum weight and function. The answer: the Switchback 32, a technically sophisticated, lightweight rucksack with alpine features for demanding ski tours. Pure performance for rock, ice and snow. Particularly practical: quick access to equipment. The shoulder and hip pockets, the side compartment for crampons, skins and crampons as well as the rope are quickly and easily accessible without having to remove the rucksack. Skis can also be attached parallel to the rucksack with a carabiner while carrying. In the separate safety compartment, emergency equipment and a lightweight ice axe are quickly to hand in an emergency, while the fully hinged back offers access to all items in the main compartment. Additional volume is provided by a large, separate compartment in the upper part of the Switchback 32, while two ice axe holders, a daisy chain, rope attachment and helmet net round off the numerous attachment options. When heavily loaded, the ergonomic Full Contact Light Back System optimally distributes the load on the back. If the rucksack is less well filled, the volume can be effectively reduced with the 3-point compression straps of the A-Skifix. Low weight, maximum function.
