Ortovox FREE RIDER 20 S black raven

Compact, close-fitting freeride rucksack for complete freedom of movement

Highlights

Ergonomic and flexible

Versatile and customisable

Carefully designed to meet all off-piste demands

The FREE RIDER 20 S fits particularly snugly against the back whilst freeriding on any terrain, like a second skin. This is ensured above all by the flat, elastic CLASP FLEX BELT, which provides control in every situation and delivers a reliable fit. The soft back pads mould to the back without restricting the movement of the vertebrae. The back of the rucksack can be upgraded with the CLASP SPINE PROTECTOR (available at extra cost). The spine protector is certified to motorbike standards and is available separately. It can be easily slipped into a separate inner pocket.

To ensure the best possible fit whilst on the move, the rucksack can be quickly compressed using integrated side straps, folding flat against the back like a second skin. For abseiling down steep gullies or during short walking sections, the freeride rucksack has all the necessary attachment points for skis, ice axes or ropes, and also features the tried-and-tested helmet net, emergency map and hydration system preparation. All these features are neatly stowed away on the outside to ensure you don’t get snagged anywhere, even in rough terrain.

This compact freeride rucksack also offers plenty of space for skins and crampons, ensuring maximum flexibility on the mountain. Emergency kit is safely stowed away in the separate safety compartment and quickly to hand, whilst all other items in the main compartment can be accessed from the front or the back. The FREE RIDER 20 S is a versatile companion offering maximum flexibility and freedom of movement on skis.
