The path to the ultimate avalanche protection system
Curiously, the idea for avalanche backpacks was not born during sports but during hunting. A forester noticed that he didn">ABS ("Avalanche Balloon Secutem") Peter Aschauer GmbH he started to develop a system that allows avalanche victims to increase their volume at the push of a button without having any disadvantages when skiing.
Five years after the founding of the company, the first ABS® avalanche airbag was presented at the ISPO in Munich. In 1996, the first ABS Double Airbag (TwinBag) with pyrotechnical-pneumatic trigger followed. Two years later, the company Deuter continued the development and ensured another breakthrough by optimizing the system. Since the 2000s, the development team has increasingly focused on the target group of backcountry skiers and snowboarders.
High-Tech Avalanche Airbags
A safe avalanche airbag is a technical masterpiece. The models of ABS® are particularly ingenious. Unrestricted application and combination possibilities result for example from the so-called ZipOn principle. This means that the backpacks can be adapted in a very simple way by attaching different pack sacks..
The P.RIDE System represents a new generation of avalanche backpacks. Partner activation is now integrated as a standard (in the event of an avalanche, one person of the group can remotely activate the airbags of his companions up to a distance of 300 meters). P.RIDE also provides automatic system control. ABS TwinBags provide double safety.
