Avabag Deployment

Installing the Avabag Unit 

Setting your handle correctly


What's Included:

  • Cross Rider AVABAG Backpack 
  • AVABAG Airbag Unit 
  • Rearming tool 
  • Instructions (Multiple Languages)

Ideal For:

The Ortovox Cross Rider 18 Avabag is ideal for off-piste days and those who like to pack light and climb higher to get better descents. This is your go-to pack for unforgettable days off-piste.   


The Fit:

The Cross Rider 18 Avabag is a descent-oriented avalanche airbag that still has all of the important functions for days spent riding powder. Its close fit and foamed back mean it will sit perfectly on the body and ensure maximum freedom of movement.


Ortovox AVABAG Activation:

When wearing your Ortovox Cross Rider 18 Avabag system you must make sure that all of your straps are securely fastened and the Activation handle is adjusted to the correct height.

1. Correctly Installing the Avabag system: Ensure that the AVABAG system has been installed correctly. The activation cable with the silver ball must be able to pass through the feed channel with no restrictions and the AVABAG balloon must be correctly folded.

2. Correctly Mounting the Activation Handle: The Silver ball on the activation cable must be easily visible in one of the two settings, so L or S. The position slider must be firmly attached to the activation handle. The Guide bar on the activation handle must be inserted into the feed channel for the appropriate setting.

Short Grip Length (S)

Long Grip Length (L)

3. Checking the Activation Mechanism: Insert the unthreaded side (smooth surface) of the AVABAG re-arming tool without force into the cartridge bushing if you can insert the re-arming tool right up to the stop. The AVABAG system is armed and ready to activate. if the re-arming tool cannot be completely inserted, you must re-arm the system.

4. Correctly Attaching the Avabag Cartridge: Screw the AVABAG cartridge into the cartridge bushing right up to the stop so that the sealing ring can no longer be seen on the AVABAG cartridge, Fasten the backpack orange cartridge clip to keep in place.

5. How To Wear The Backpack Correctly: Fasten the leg safety. to do this, thread the hip strap through the coloured loop on the leg safety strap. Fasten both buckles on the hip and chest straps one after the other and ensure that they are properly locked into place.

6. Activating The AVABAG Avalanche Unit: In the case of an avalanche, pull abruptly and as firmly as possible on the activation handle to activate the avabag avalanche airbag and inflate the avabag balloon!


Ortovox AVABAG Unit:

Thanks to the innovative processing system which requires no sewing or additional sealing, and a drastically reduced venturi unit, the Ortovox Avabag is one of the lightest airbag systems in the world. Weighing only 690g, the system combines an incredible lightweight stripped-down design with the highest levels of reliability.

The Ortovox Avabag Unit is removable so that you can insert it into any Ortovox Avabag Branded Backpack. The Alpride E1 Airbags also offer this removable airbag function.

The Ortovox Avabag unit will allow you to run multiple tests and practices without using your canister, this is due to the Ortovox Rearming Testing Tool.
