Dead bird (arc’teryx) has launched the latest avalanche airbag and some new ski boots and the interwebs is, of course, all abuzz.
Discusion on the ski blogs has begun and it can be hard to read some of this stuff without wanting to ask some asshole questions. Like how can someone that wants to be taken seriously about airbags be taken seriously when then don’t seem to understand the principal of “inverse segregation”? Batteries and cold temps were also discussed. Not sure about you but 30 litres is not enough room for me to comfortably pack a bag that I would take on a glaciated tour (even with ACC huts along the way) . Add the weight of the battery and fan and it’s ‘no way’.
I just don’t really understand what the intended outcome is supposed to be with this kind of gear. Sure if there is less death then who can argue, but will that really be what happens? Take a look at helmet stats and extrapolate. These things are marketed as some kind of ‘safety device’ when nothing could be further from the truth. As long as we mistake a purchase of technology as being safe we will be nothing of the sort. Skiing is not safe and there is really no way to make it so. There is only risk and how you approach it. If making mistakes is part of your plan (sure it happens but if you are going out KNOWING that you will fuck up) then I don’t want to ski with you.

Skiing in Canada come with stats that claim 50% of avalanche casualties are caused by trauma and wearing an airbag while skiing a propagating layer below treeline is courting death, no matter how much you practiced with the trigger. And you can do this with the new bird bag and what makes it so disruptive (how I hate that term). So practice in you living room as much as you want and take it on an airplane! Travel to exotic places knowing that you brought the goods to get the goods ― no matter what conditions might dictate. Let’s see how this all works out in a few years.
