Great video. You answered literarily every question I had. Thanks!

[@ALinsdau]

Glad to help.

[@camiloauersperg-breunner2821]

Thanks for this review. Considering to buy this one for mountaineering but also for climbing.

[@ALinsdau]

It works pretty well as a light backpacking pack, too.

[@FengShuiPhysiologist]

Really flexible pack - attachments and room for everything.

[@ALinsdau]

It’s surprisingly versatile.

[@wishmaster444]

Very helpful, great explanations of every feature. Thank you very much :)

[@ALinsdau]

Glad it was helpful!

[@michaelmardini346]

Excellent review ! I am happy to just discover your channel

[@ALinsdau]

Thanks!

[@i-am-your-conscience]

What is the minimum height of the backpack? Because if it is compressable in height to 55cm, it can be used as carry on, allowing one to fly without checkin, which makes the flight much cheaper, and the checkin and checkout much faster, and you dont have to fear that your equipment got stolen or damaged.

[@suspower]

Yea, i was wondering the same thing

[@DerDtRM]

thanks a lot for this detailed review - perfect. i will go for an alpine tour on week-end (piz palü) and had no idea about my new speed 40, how to pack all the things, you make me happy. there aren't any instructions or support about it on the black diamond homepage or some handbook available, respectively i didn't find any.

[@ALinsdau]

Glad to help - climb safely!

[@albinomattosfilho9394]

Actually the loop with the single red carabiner is a slot for ice clippers carabiners, to hold the icescrews, maybe a water bottle will be horribly dangling while walking.....

[@ALinsdau]

Thanks!

[@vickilinsdau8687]

Great video 😎 would be great to have a more versatile pack🥾👍🏻

[@ALinsdau]

Thanks for watching.

[@Alpinefilms199]

is it good for multiday trekking

[@ALinsdau]

For ultralight, it'd be okay for a weekend, maybe 3-day. It depends on if you need a bear can or not.

[@bfariash]

Hi!! Great Video :) do you recommend the BD Speed 50 for two days expeditions? With tent and sleeping bag.

[@ALinsdau]

It'd get the job done.

[@WanderingBackpacker]

Is it yellow or green? 😀😂

[@ALinsdau]

Hahah - bad color match with the green screen. Oops!
