That's a Mammut airbag but looks like his trigger is stowed. Dunno for sure. Thin wind slab layer broke, looks like it didn't break to the ground. Could have been much more "exciting".

Didn't see a trigger so assumed it was not an avy bag........a stored trigger pretty much makes it useless.

Wind loaded cornice. Spring snow. Stowed trigger. Buddy in a runout zone. What could go wrong.
