10/10 pack

This is the perfect pack for backcountry riding or touring. As a smaller female, the S/M size fits perfect and is not too bulky. The pockets and specific sections of this pack allow for smooth transitions when splitboarding without having to dump out your entire pack. I especially like the side pockets for poles during the downhill or even with travel. The helmet sling that is fixed to a small pocket out the bottom of the bag is also a huge plus. All in all, after using this pack several times I can say the features, sizing and overall design was incredibly intentional and well thought out.

Everything you need on a single Pack

The suspension system on the heap is amazing; you don't realize how easy the pack moves with you until you take it off. Fits a whole sport rack, harness and climbing shoes. Helmet was transported on the dedicated helmet holder; I also brought a 32oz water bottle within the pack. Rope fits easily on top of the pack. On the goggles pocket I brought two radios, belay glasses, wallet, cellphone and car keys, so it's pretty big. And on the outer pocket there was also space for my rain pant and jacket

Great Split Bag for Summit days

Splitboard user, recently went on a Mt. St. Helens summit, and this bag was very useful and easy to access pockets. Plenlty of space for day trips. I like the feature of being able to swing the bag around with only the wait belt attached to access the main compartment.
