This vest has NobleTek insulation and was designed specifically for the needs of snowmobile enthusiasts. Surviva-Vest is the most thermally efficient and effective survival vest available.
It provides instant warmth by simply pulling a cord and the vest auto-inflates in less than a second, capturing your body's heat in an efficient way. It has a dynamic channel design so when the vest is inflated it contours to your body and doesn't allow the air to escape.
NobleTek insulation also keeps you warm regardless of moisture, even if you fall into a creek. Another feature includes pressurized bladders of Argon for wind proofing. Argon also makes it thinner, warmer and more compact emergency gear.
One of the newest products on the market aimed at helping snowmobilers survive an avalanche is the Avi Vest.
The vest features an inflatable red safety airbag that you can inflate by pulling a rip cord if you're caught in an avalanche. The airbag inflates and rises to the surface of a slide, taking the person wearing the vest with it. After two minutes, the airbag slowly begins to deflate, discharging breathable air while creating a cavity behind the person's head.
The compressed air cylinder used to inflate the Avi Vest is rechargeable. The Impact version of the Avi Vest also offers impact protection.

The new Ski-Doo Helium Clothing series from BRP is designed with a combination of high-tech materials for active mountain riders. At the heart of this system is a membrane new to the North American market known as Sympatex, which establishes new levels of breathability, durability, elasticity and is more environmentally-friendly compared to PTFE-membranes.
Helium gear has a breathable membrane with Sympatex that adapts as the rider's effort level increases. The non-porous membrane is waterproof, windproof and the PTFE-free Sympatex membrane is a copolymer consisting of polyester and polyether-production of which produces no toxic materials-and is 100 percent recyclable.
Helium jackets and pants are offered in two versions, the Helium 50 series featuring a heavier Cordura outer shell with XS through 3XL sizing and the Advanced TEC Helium 30 series using a nylon outer shell and offering tall sizing in addition. Both series are available with black or red jackets.
Retail price is $399.99/$479.99 Canadian.
This POV Camera head mounting solution includes the RAM Suction Mount and POV Tri-Pod Mount.
The two complementing pieces are joined by a secure ¼-20 Tri-Pod thread. The RAM Suction Mount is designed to have an extra strong hold on any smooth, non-porous surface. For best results, mount the suction cup on a glass or non-porous plastic surface.
The unit retails for $49.95.
