SNOWPULSE is known for providing quality avalanche safety equipment with their unique Avalanche Safety Backpacks. Snowpulse products are simple and user friendly.

THE HISTORY OF SNOWPULSE
Snowpulse is one of the leading companies for manufacturing avalanche safety equipment. The company was established in the Valley of Verbier mountains and their objective is to deliver safety products for the back country.
Using their years of expertise, the Snowpulse Research and Development team designed a quality avalanche Airbag System with enhanced safety measures. Each and every Snowpulse product is thoroughly tested to ensure efficiency and to verify the user's personal safety.
The Snowpulse System has become popular in several mountain safety organizations over a short span of time. The Snowpulse Airbag comes with Head-On-Top (H.O.T) technology which prevents head and chest trauma while helping to keep the victim's head at the top of the snow drift.
In 2010, Snowpulse introduced new life-saving backpacks such as the Lifebag 30L, LifeBag 45L, ProRider 10L and ProRider 15L. All these backpacks have the Avalanche Airbag System installed.
Avalanche Airbag System
The Avalanche Airbag System comes with comfortable shoulder straps and a gas cylinder. The special feature of the Airbag is the protection it offers against head and chest trauma. Snowpulse AirBags normally weigh around 1.4kg and the gas cylinders are compact enough to allow for huge storage space inside the backpack. Snowpulse backpacks designed to be easy to carry no matter how much gear you put inside the backpack.
Snowpulse Airbag Working steps
1. When the skier is off piste, he opens the Lifebag's pocket which contains the handle.
2. In the event of an avalanche, he pulls the handle which is connected to the cylinder via a wire.
3. Now the pressurised cylinder inflates the airbag within 3 seconds.
4. The user can endure the avalanche by inflating the airbag and protecting his body from major injuries.
5. The AirBag System can be reused by having the cylinder refilled by a professional.
Key Benefits and Safety Features of Snowpulse Airbags

3. The Head on Top Technology which keeps the user on his back with his head out of the snow.
4. With the help of inflated Airbags it even requires less time to rescue a buried avalanche victim.
