Congratulations to the winners – you’ve earned it!
We want to thank everyone for their contributions!
1. Prize
AVALANCHE AIRBAG Ride R.A.S.
In an emergency, the newly developed R.A.S. (Removable Airbag System) will help you to stay on the surface of the avalanche. Its very lightweight and compact design results in a weight of just 2.9 kilograms with a backpack volume of 30 litres including the filled compressed air cartridge. In addition, with just a few simple movements, you can remove the system developed by Snowpulse and integrate it in another R.A.S.-compatible backpack. The 150-litre airbag inflates in 3 seconds using the replaceable 300 bar compressed air cartridge supplied separately. It is activated mechanically, by pulling on a handle stowed in the shoulder strap, which can be reused after deployment.
Including an air cartridge!

2. Prize
ELEMENT BARRYVOX
A new avalanche transceiver from Mammut, pared down to the essentials. It is distinguished by its extremely simple navigation and clear instructions. The one-button operation and clearly laid out display make the device very user friendly, guaranteeing fast and precise location. Signal analysis, listing of victims and a marking function also provide assistance when tackling complex situations involving multiple buried victims.

3. Prize
RAPTOR EDGE BLUE
The D-grip in the blade of the Raptor Edge gives additional gripping postions and is the key to effectiveness and efficiency. With its integrated metal edge the shatter-proof blade of the avalanche shovel is particularly strong in terms of stability and edge abrasion.
