Weighing just over four pounds, the Jetforce UL 26L Backpack is Black Diamond's lightest backcountry backpack with an included avalanche airbag system.. New for the season, Alpride 2 system. 0 by Black Diamond, uses two small cartridges combining compressed argon and CO2 gases, which weigh less than the original Jetforce fan and at the same time inflate in just five seconds. Deployment trigger can be switched to any shoulder strap and it can be customized according to your preferences. The front compartment stores everything you need for exploring the countryside and the 26L main compartment has plenty of room for all your day-long essentials.
The Black Diamond company has developed a backpack like this so that it complements the lightness of the Alpride avalanche system and minimalism and just the right amount of functions for tourism bootpacking and easier mountaineering. The ice ax cover can be removed if you want to lose a gram or two and the diagonal ski holder and helmet holder can be hidden to look respectable when skiing.
