Stay on top to stay alive – the principle of the ABS-Airbag System:

The ABS avalanche airbag is A well thought out and proven system to prevent burial in an avalanche and to survive the fall with the fewest possible injuries.

INCREASED VOLUME KEEPS YOU ON TOP:
Each avalanche consists of individual rotating snow crystals. The smaller crystals of snow are creeping beneath the larger crystals and forcing them upward. As the avalanche slows down and comes to a standstill, the buoyancy force drops. So it is the avalanche itself that repeatedly forces the skier upward. But due to greater density, the skier cannot remain at the surface and sinks back down, burying the victim as the avalanche tapers out.

In order to not get buried by the avalanche you have to increase your volume by a factor of 1.5 of your body weight. The 170 additional liters of the inflated ABS airbags offer you the necessary buoyancy to stay on top of an avalanche.

STAYING LEVEL (HORIZONTAL) REDUCES THE RISK OF INJURY:
The avalanche is not an even, liquid mass. Varying densities – from powder snow to ice slabs – move at different speeds. The dynamic forces within the avalanche are enormous. The more horizontal the victim moves with the snow on the surface the less likely he is affected by these diverging forces. The risk of injury is greatly reduced.

CUSHIONING EFFECT OF THE BODY:
Hundreds of case studies have shown how crucial it is that the airbag is NOT fixed to the body. An airbag that is wrapped over the chest and head like a swim vest allows the body to be at the mercy of the avalanche. The ABS-airbags are attached to the body in such a manner that they are able to compensate for the erratic movements of the avalanche.

UNOBSTRUCTED VISION, COMPLETE FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT:
The unobstructed vision and freedom of movement, even with the inflated airbags, allow you to escape an avalanche and make it possible to react when caught in an avalanche and assume a protective position.

SHAKETEST:
The biggest pieces swim on top.
