Any review that incorporates a litre stein of beer gets my vote!

[@lowieh.3451]

thanks. Thinking of getting a larger pack to accommodate longer trips.

You can add an extra level of water resistance with a waterproofing spray & rubbing wax on the zips 👍🇦🇺

Sorry I’ve been slacking lately on watching videos....life happened.....lol. So this is one great pack! It looks fairly light by itself but wow can it carry a lot, and has a lot of features!

Just got a 22 Liter, which is probably 18L after the airbag installed but a good size for off the lift and accessing off piste. I do wonder how easily it will be getting refilled in Austria or France for my trips so might just take a handpump, and the necessary tools - which would no doubt keep me fit pumping the damn thing up when I get there.400 strokes to fill apparently. I haven't been able to do 400 strokes since I was in my 20's.

Is it possible to attach the skis on the side (A-style) on the Light 30 airbag? Thanks

DATE:6-15-21, YOUR BOTTLE I HAD RECANIZED IT,I SAW IT BEING REFILLED ON ANOTHER VIDEO, QUITE A PROCESS AND I THOUGHT THE BCA WAS A HEAD ACH,THE 2.0L BOTTLE WHICH IS WAY SMALLER AND LIGHTER.

DATE: 6-15-21 WATCHED THE VIDEO I BELIEVE ON THE MAMMUTE FLOAT BACKPACK,22,ONE THING YOU (YOUNG WOMEN)MENTIONED,SHOWING THE DAISY CHAINS, EXCELLENT IDEA BUT YOU HAD MENTIONED ABOUT ADDING MORE WEIGHT.TRUE TO A POINT,EITHER YOU DON'T HAVE MUCH EXPERIENCE SKIING WEARING A BACKPACK (MAYBE)BUT IT CAN BE A BIG ADVANTAGE AND I'M BASING THAT ON ME ASWELL AS OTHER PEOPLE.--AS FAR AS THE GUY IN THE VIDEO PUTTING ON THE AIRBAG 22,THE BELT,THE BUCKLE IS MADE OUT OF ALUMINUM AND YES YOU CAN ATTACH IT WEARING MITTENS.I WEAR MITTENS IN COLD 🥶❄️ WEATHER ALL THE TIME, ALL THE TIME.MINE ARE CALLED"BATWAVE", I'M A SNOWBOARDER,BEEN AT IT SINCE 1994.BUT I ALWAYS RIDE WITH MY,BCA STASH 30 AND I JUST BOUGHT A BCA FLOAT 32.I RIDE 100% BETTER WITH MY PACK ON THAN WITHOUT,BEEN DOING IT SINCE 1998.MYBCA STASH 30 WHEN FULLEY LOADED WEIGHS ABOUT 50-65 LBS AND THAT'S WITH 3L OF LEMMON WATER,AVY SHOVEL,AVY PROBE,SNOW SAW,SNOW STUDY KIT.--FOR MY BCA FLOAT 32 (2021 RED) I'LL CARRY THE SAME EQUIPMENT.I ALSO WEAR A BCA TRACKER 4,THE BEST AVALANCHE TRANSCEIVER I'VE EVER USED,I ALSO CARRY IN MY PACK A BCA TRACKER 2. MY POINT BEING,IF YOUR NOT USED TO THE WEIGHT GO OUT AND PRACTICE BY ADDING THING'S IN YOUR PACK.SKI FOR A WEEK OR SO AND THEN ADD A LITTLE MORE WEIGHT FOR A WEEK AND KEEP DOING THIS TO WHERE YOUR PACK IS FULL AND IT'S JUST ANOTHER DAY,YOU DON'T GIVE IT ANY THOUGHT.THATS WHAT I DID FOR ABOUT 3 TO 4 WEEKS,IT WORKED.PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT.GOOD LUCK

If you are training to deploy it you shouldn‘t do it with 2 hands as you don‘t have this time in case of an avalanche

[@craigbosko2229]

THE GUY SITTING AT THE TABLE IS RIGHT!YOU NEED TO GO THROUGH YOUR ENTIRE BACKPACK,EVERY POCKET,EVERY CRANNY.KNOW YOUR BACKPACK LIKE THE BACK OF YOUR HAND,NO EXCEPTIONS THAT WAY IF A REAL EMERGENCY COMES UP YOUR GOAL IS TO RESPOND WITH LESS THINKING,THE MORE YOU THINK THE LESS YOU DO.- YOUR FLOAT BAG ITSELF LOOKS BIGGER,MUCH BETTER,HIGHER UP IN THE AIR THAN YOUR 1ST MODEL.-WHAT KIND OF(GAS)DOES IT TAKE FOR THE GAS BOTTLE?

DATE:6-15-21,2ND COMMENT, A SMALL PORTION I LEFT OUT.WHEN I'M RIDING, ESPECIALLY IN DEEEEEEEP POWER WITH MY (HEAVY BACKPACK ON, I'M SO USED TO IT), FOR ME,THE WEIGHT OF THE PACK GOES STRAIGHT DOWN THROUGH MY BOARD DOWN INTO THE GROUND,MY TURNS ARE WAY MORE PERSISE,I CAN TURN ON A DIME,STOP ON A DIME, EVERYTHING IS A FINE LINE,I CAN DO QUICK TURNS OR LONG DRAWN OUT TURNS,WHATEVER I WANT.WITHOUT MY PACK,FORGET IT, TOTALLY 100%DIFFERENT STORY.MY TURNS I END UP SLIDING MORE,NO PERSITION IN THE TURNS OR STOPPING.DONT LIKE IT.

"mammut says its for well equipped person 1 day duration...I would disagree...its built for essentials only....well equipped person? maybe well equipped person for one day...." these two should not be up there and be making videos to review equipment
