Earlier today a friend sent me a link to AvaLung – the context being off-piste safety. This came up when I was talking about the Best Beginner Avalanche Beacons.
I don’t have much off-piste experience, especially the real, hiking/back-country kind. However, for a variety of reasons including rider profiles, the extras on Absinthe’s More, snowboarding insurance and booking a chalet with Snowmotions, I’ve become more aware of off-piste safety issues.
So I found the AvaLung products pretty interesting. That’s some clever thinking there. If you’re into riding off-piste it’s worth checking out.
But first and foremost, education is key… check out our Basic Avalanche Safety Tips.
