“POC continues to break new ground when it comes to safety on the mountains, no matter on the slopes or in the backcountry.

The fluorescent orange color of the Dimension ensures perfect visibility even during the worst white-out, and high-quality materials and construction guarantee lasting durability and absolute reliability. And by integrating technology such as the embedded RECCO® reflector, which makes a user searchable to rescue teams, we are able to enhance the role of smart technology and add a layer of safety which does not need batteries or an internet connection,” says Johan Weman, Technology Exploration Director at POC.īesides the Alpride E2 Electronic Airbag System, the backpack offers a left or right side height-adjustable airbag deployment handle, an airbag compartment with a burst-zipper, a fleeced goggle zip-pocket, a zip-pocket for valuables with a key-clip, and a pouch for a first aid kit in the main compartment. We developed our most advanced backpack yet, the Dimension Avalanche Backpack, to create a convenient, practical, hassle-free system with zero compromises. “Research shows that the best chance to avoid burial in an avalanche is with an avalanche airbag. Rescuers can use a handheld or helicopter-mounted RECCO Detector that detects the RECCO Reflector on the Dimension backpack. Integrated into the Dimension backpack, the RECCO reflector complements an avalanche transceiver by adding a second layer of searchability. The combination of these two technologies helps create the perfect tool for enhanced safety during backcountry adventures.

Stockholm, Sweden – (November 8, 2022)/ OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – Allowing winter backcountry users to be more searchable in the case of an accident or if they become lost, the new POC Dimension Avalanche Backpack integrates RECCO technology paired with POC’s new and advanced Alpride E2 Electronic Airbag System.
