POW 16 comes equipped with a CE-Certified full back protector (Level 1) by SAS-TEC that's made of flexible viscoelastic foam with memory effect that returns to its original shape after impact or deformation.
Hydration-Tech Made for Alpine Conditions.
The pack has room for 16 liters of storage and can fit up to a 3 liter hydration bladder (NOT included), so you can pack the essentials for your adventure while remaining light weight.
Hate it when your water freezes? Everyone does. That's why USWE has integrated the Thermo Cell insulation pocket on the shoulder straps that encapsulates the heat from physical activity to protect the drink tube from freezing even in the most extreme winter conditions. These pockets are also perfect for storing snacks. The Thermo Cell technology requires that you produce body heat, that you're using layers of clothes that're breathable, and that you keep the zippers to the insulated pocket closed while in action.
Carry Your Stuff.
At the back there's a quick access Avalanche Equipment pocket, where you can store your safety gear. There's also an external helmet carry system, a snowboard carry system, and the ski carry system on the side. The waist belt has two quick access pockets and the pack has a goggle pocket where you can also safely store your precious goggles. USWE even threw in a microfiber cleaner tissue... USWE thought of everything! If you want a slim profile, you can tuck everything together with the outside compression system.
The POW 16 protector pack will keep you protected while you're bombing the mountain while having absolutely zero bounce. It's a supersmooth snowboarding and skiing backpack made for the alpine adventures in high speed and adrenaline. It comes with a CE-Certified full back protector, No Dancing Monkey 2.0 + Snug-Me harness system, Thermo Cell insulation technology, ski and snowboard carrier system, and quick access avalanche equipment pocket. In total it's 16 liters of storage for your personal gear and safety equipment. The POW gives a super-snug and comfortable fit that makes you feel free and safe without cramping your style.
Detailed Specifications:
Technology:
It is the unique shape and suspension of USWE No Dancing Monkey (NDM) harness systems that make their packs 100% bounce free. It's construction allows you to snug the packs really tight to the body, without affecting your breathing capacity or body movement. It is almost like wearing no pack at all.
NDM 2.0 + Snug-Me.
The shoulder and waist traps are an all-in-one system, embracing your torso and waist when pulling the waist straps. The stretch in the chest straps expands along with the chest during physical exertion, allowing a constant tight and compliant fit. The shoulder straps are ergonomically designed for a comfortable and smooth distribution of the backpack over the shoulders and the back panel that can easily be adjusted up and down for individual fit and size makes the pack feel tailored-for-your body. The NDM + Snug-Me harness system makes you feel buckled-up without cramping your style.
THERMOCELL Technology:
Thermo Cell is equipped with a multilayer insulation cover that reflects the heat on the inside and shields from the cold and wind from the outside. By its design, the Thermo Cell closes tightly to the body and a thin mesh membrane permits maximum body heat to pass through. Used in this way the body heat feeds the Thermo Cell with thermal energy. Smart!
Thermo Cell encapsulates heat from physical activity in an insulating air pocket that protects the tube and bite valve from freezing even in the most extreme winter conditions. Therefore, USWE has chosen to provide both shoulder straps on the NORDIC, HAJKER and POW backpacks with Thermo Cell so that you get the option of choosing which side you want to have the tube in tube, or having tubes on both sides (double hydration bladders). Or optional, why not store gels and bars that you can easily reach on-the-go in the pocket you don't use.
