Description
Get more value for your money. Airbag packs can become quite heavy after a full day on the skintrack, which is why Backcountry Access has developed the new Float 2.0 Cylinder to be 30% smaller and 15% lighter than the previous Float 1.0 engine. While saving weight is always a plus, this cylinder truly stands out with its reduced volume. The compact cylinder fits perfectly inside the airbag compartment, freeing up valuable space in the main pocket. Now you can easily pack an extra layer or enjoy a mug of hot tea. Plus, the Float 2.0 Cylinder activates at a psi of 3,000, compared to the 2,700 of the Float 1.0.
