Poster: A snowHead
|
Announced today, the new Mammut Veste airbag will come with the option of a larger leg protection system that almost fully encloses the user in a James Bond style avalanche protection suit!
A spokes person from Mammut "Lori Oflap" says that this option should increase the airbag volume by some 200%.
Sounds like we are almost at the complete airbag suit as used by Bond some years ago??

I've heard the bags are lined with "Polar Foil" to keep the victim warm while waiting for help.

Maybe the 007 jet pack would be better and give a softer landing

Could be an April Fool....but on the other hand why not have such a thing if it could fit into a rucksac?

Do they know if that bag carries higher risk of you being upside down when snow stops moving? No good being on surface if your head is below
