New product :Arc’teryx Quintic, perfect backcountry buddies

Arc’teryx introduces new Ski Touring solutions: Quintic 28L & 38L Packs. Offering well-thought shape and fixture solutions, those packs make lengthy backcountry ascents and steep descents easier. Quintic 28 pack is a nominee for the ISPO Award 2012 in the Action Sports category and won the Gear of the Year Award at Outside magazine!

Shining the spotlight on all things alpine, Arc’teryx turns its attention to winter backcountry with its latest pack. Inspired in shape by the blade of a utility knife, the wide and flat profile of the new Quintic 28L &38L Packs manages weight transfer by keeping the load low, close and centered over the hips.

Specifically designed for skiing and snowboarding, the Quintic Pack has a suspension system that controls aggressive side-to-side motion and separate narrow compartments to keep gear sorted, easy to access and well-balanced during travel. The external strap configuration fits A-frame or diagonal carry of skis; horizontal and vertical carry for a snowboard. In the spirit of alpine needs for efficient ascents and secure downhill action, the true benefit of this design is load stability and access.
