Ortovox Switchback 27L Backpack

The Ortovox Switchback 27L Backpack is the perfect choice from long ascents to steep couloirs. Ski tours in alpine terrain require optimum weight and function and the Switchback 27 is a lightweight, technically sophisticated backpack with alpine features for demanding ski tours. Designed to provide easy access to your equipment this pack also features shoulder and hip pockets, a side compartment for crampons, climbing skins and ski crampons, and a rope can all be easily accessed without having to remove the backpack. A carabiner can also be used to attach skis parallel to the backpack while it is being worn. The separate safety compartment makes it easy to grab your emergency equipment while everything in the main compartment can be accessed via the fold-out back. Featuring a versatile selection of attachment options such as two ice axe holders, a daisy chain, a rope attachment, and a helmet net you can carry all your ski essentials. When heavily loaded, the ergonomic full contact light back system distributes the load across your back. Featuring A-SKIFIX 3-point compression straps the volume of the backpack can be reduced if the backpack is not too full ensuring low weight and maximum function.
