Black Diamond is upping the ante once again with the next rendition of their JetForce Avalanche Airbag. The Pro Split is lighter more functional and more tech savvy. The revolutionary super capacitor airbag system sheds even more weight and size for 2020 and is re-positioned in the pack for improved carrying capabilities. Not only does the pack boast increased volume over the previous model but the new modular system means you can purchase 10 25 and 35 liter ‘boosters’ to you pack to increase carrying capacity. This is perfect for industry professionals or those going on longer backcountry tours but still want the protection of an avalanche airbag. As for the tech Black Diamond added bluetooth capability which makes any software update a breeze- all you need to do is upload and connect the PIEPS app right from your smart phone. After deployment the bag automatically deflates to create an air pocket in the event of a full burial. The trigger now features status lights and the bag has been re positioned for better carrying and can be deployed even when carrying skis or snowboard. Other features include a carabiner clip for quick and easy attachment of the hip belt a dedicated avy tools pocket attachments to secure your ice tools and a helmet carry system. Black Diamond took all the advantages of the super capacitor and implemented the system into one of the best thought out avalanche packs on the market.
