Fly Racing Backcountry Kit

The kit is a three-piece bundle containing a dedicated backcountry backpack, an SP1 shovel with an integrated saw blade, and an SP1 avalanche probe. It is designed to provide the essential safety tools needed for off-trail riding in one package.

Yes, the SP1 shovel is built for backcountry conditions. The integrated saw feature is particularly useful for clearing debris or cutting blocks for snow study, making it a robust tool for emergency situations.

The pack is specifically designed to carry the included safety equipment efficiently. While it provides dedicated storage for the shovel and probe, you will have limited additional space for extra layers or snacks, so it is best suited for riders who prioritize a streamlined, low-profile setup.

Absolutely. This kit is an excellent entry point because it eliminates the guesswork of sourcing individual components. However, owning the gear is only half the battle; we strongly recommend taking an avalanche safety course to learn how to use these tools effectively in the field.

The saw is primarily engineered for snowpack assessment and clearing small debris like branches that might obstruct a trail. It is not intended for heavy-duty wood cutting or construction tasks.
