This is the otter box cross rider 2020. Litre bag, and they've made lots of updates compared to previous years it's. Got everything in there that i could want to go touring with, and so we'll just take time to go through each. Of the features so first of all in our. Front pocket we have a deep pocket. Including a zippered one for all. Valuables included in there is a helmet. Net as well this is for when you've got. So many things in your bag you can attach your helmet onto the outside which will save space and mean that it's out the way in my main pocket we have. Access to the main space there's a space. For shovel and a probe and it's as well. Compatible with a water hydration system there's a hole at the top and cleverly. They've also added an insulated shoulder tube which should make sure that your water isn't going to freeze if you are miles away from civilization this main. Pocket can also be accessed from the. Back meaning it's a lot quicker to. Access any of the tools that you might need there's another little compartment. Here for any other important bits that you don't want to get lost in the main pocket when we talk about straps it's. Got the across the chest strap with a whistle it's also got a really strong. Waist strap with a really handy pocket. Here for quick access once you're touring and at the front we have all of these as well so if you've not got a lot in your backpack it's gonna help. Bring it nice and tight which makes it easier for walking obviously the. Attachment for the helmet can go on here as well there's also a strap here for ice axes, and they've also included both. A diagonal and a vertical and ski strap. Holders so depending on whether you. Prefer to have them diagonal not complete personal preference but you're not limited to one way with this backpack comes in at just. 850 grams so it's on its own with plenty of space it still. Shouldn't be too heavy by the time you filled it's a very comfortable backpack thanks to the padding that you. Can see on the back and on the side straps and on the shoulder straps so if. You are going quite far away it's going to be a really comfortable backpack it's available from many retailers including. Snow and rock in seven different colors at the price point of one hundred pounds.

This is a quick review of auto boxes free-rider 26 back country backpack which. I'm having to return to the supplier after only two days use due to been dissatisfied with the quality and having safety concerns the first problem comes. With how you secure the snowboard. Vertically using these upper and lower. Fastening straps its difficult to cinch. Tight these straps once they are. Fastened you have rather you have to put. The snowboard on attach the straps then. If there's any slack undo the straps take your best guess on how tight they should be reattached them hopefully by the third time the board will be secure. Enough but that's kind of redundant. Because after only 20 minutes whether you're just walking or hiking the board. Those straps start to come loose and the. Board starts swaying left and right the. Second problem i found was with the helmet net once the board is secured. Vertically you can then you then have the option of securing the helmet net above that the problem lies in two areas. The first is with these brittle plastic. Clips on each corner of the net that. Used to go into the upper and lower. Loops with the snowboard in place these loops sits inset beneath the snowboard. So these clips have to stretch around. And attach into those loops which puts a. Lot of pressure on this inferior plastic. And then the second problem is with the. Lower loop material themselves they. Don't seem to have taken into account that snowboards have edges sharp edges at that and already after only a few. Hours hiking this material has already started to fray and will eventually fail. I imagine on the second day of my hike i. Was about thirty minutes from the peak. Suddenly i hear my snowboard helmet falling down into a bowl beneath me. Because one of these clips broke i then. Had to get on my snowboard to take a line i didn't particularly want to take to retrieve the helmet which was. Something i would consider unsafe the. Third problem was with the stitching. Already on day to the left the right. Hand strap lower strap used to secure. The snowboard the stitching has already. Started to come away it hasn't happened on the opposite side yet but I'm sure it's just a matter of time other than that the navigate compartment is nice and roomy roomier than other packs I've. Reviewed the spine protector. Although adequate could really be extended beneath and above to it to. Protect other parts of the spine the. Waist chest and arm straps are all very. Good but i wouldn't really recommend buying this pack as it just doesn't seem to have been field-tested or despite the. High price bracket and the various. Endorsements and reviews thanks.
