Designed with the world’s fastest ski mountaineers, every detail on the Rapid has been rigorously studied to increase speed and facilitate the specific maneuvers common in ski mountaineering competitions. The Rapid features an innovative hidden tethering system for connecting slower members of a team to leaders—a common maneuver in adventure and ski mountaineering races. In this same spirit, the pack accommodates a second pair of skis by using the same hip holster as the Xpress system and a lashing strap on the left shoulder. A padded pocket near the right hip allows single-handed, ultra-fast access to crampons (also great for a camera, clothing, or snacks). The interior features pockets designed specifically for a shovel and probe along with a system for attaching a hydration bladder.
