Plenty of comfort in the crisp morning backcountry air.The Switch Series is the first truly complete backcountry snow-play line. The foundation is the AquaSource - the +5 in the Switch packs - a torso adjustable yoke style harness system with built-in hydration pocket. The Switch 25+5 and 40+5 feature backside panel entry and a separate snow safety gear compartment with organizers on the front side. The Switch 55+5 is the ultimate overnight touring pack with a detachable 12+5 yo-yo pack. The addition of the Switch 18 and 14 add an in-area element to the series. Designed for lift-accessed riding, both in-bounds and out, these packs still offer many of the features of the larger Switch packs. Specifications Small Volume cu.in./liters 1400+300/23+5.

Plinko Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 Is it possible to use the regualr pack w/o the hydration unit, or is it required for it's integrated shoulder straps? Quote
Delmarco Posted November 24, 2008 Author Posted November 24, 2008 It is possible but you will have to modify your own straps with clips to clip into the pack. Quote
