Dry Back Contact
The Dry Back Contact carrying system ensures that the load is carried close to the body while keeping your back dry. This is achieved by reducing the contact area and 3D ventilation channels, which ensure greater evaporation per cm² than with traditional constructions and a reduction in temperature in the centre back area. The two-part compression system and a hip belt that completely encloses the hips and is equipped with an additional equipment loop for via ferrata carabiners and a mesh pocket guarantee that the backpack fits well and the load is optimally distributed.

For more stability and improved control, our Twin Compression System (TCS) has an upper and a lower compression area that allow you to easily regulate the volume. This means you can always stabilise the load centrally. The lightweight split shoulder straps give your arms plenty of freedom of movement and further reduce the contact surface, so you sweat less and air can circulate better.
