Db Snow Pro Vest

While an avalanche airbag is designed to keep you on the surface of the snow, the Safeback SBX system is designed to keep you breathing if you are fully buried. It uses a fan-powered system to pull fresh air from the snowpack and deliver it to your face, while simultaneously exhausting carbon dioxide to prevent asphyxiation.

It depends on your needs. The Snow Pro Vest is designed for resort and sidecountry skiers who want a lower-profile option with 8L of storage for essentials. If you are heading into the backcountry for full days and need to carry significant extra gear, you may still prefer the capacity of a traditional avalanche backpack.

Yes, the vest features a unisex, one-size-fits-all design with adjustable straps. This allows you to customize the fit over your base layers or shell to ensure it stays secure and comfortable while you ride.

The system is built to operate in temperatures as low as -22 degrees Fahrenheit. It utilizes lithium AA batteries, which are reliable in cold environments, but you should always check your battery levels before heading out.

Yes, the vest is equipped with dedicated carry features, including vertical snowboard carry and diagonal ski carry, allowing you to hike comfortably when you need to access terrain beyond the lift.

The vest weighs 1820 grams. Because of its low-profile design, that weight sits closer to your body, which helps maintain a better center of gravity compared to a traditional backpack.
