RobBob Posted March 7, 2003 Posted March 7, 2003 I came across this whacky invention while reading on the plane: It conjures up all sorts of other possibilities, like a huge ballon that inflates if one slides into a cravasse, etc., etc... Quote
fleblebleb Posted March 7, 2003 Posted March 7, 2003 Been for sale in Europe for years. Google for avalanche airbag backpack or some such thing. Basically an airbag with a ripcord, keeps you on top of the slide unless you get sucked into a terrain trap. Quote
RobBob Posted March 7, 2003 Author Posted March 7, 2003 This one was in Fortune Mag...complete with radar for inflation before you nail the tree. Quote

freeclimb9 Posted March 7, 2003 Posted March 7, 2003 So, what exactly causes the nutsack expansion? The maximum size depicted in the drawing is frightening. Apparently it's obscured the skiers view cuz that dude is about to smash his sack on a tree. Quote
