This weekend I had an accidental discharge of my Ortovox pack with rolling my sled over to get unstuck. The handle must’ve hooked onto the track just as the sled rolled over.
Well, fast forward to today as I was rolling it all back up after it drying out. Since the cartridge was out, I started wondering how hard it actually is to pull the cord and how easy to accidentally set it off. Well, lets say I thought something was jammed up, since I was pulling pretty hard, so I though and no “click” was happening. So I threw the pack on and gave it a pretty firm yank and CLICK! Success!!
The question I have is, “Do you know how hard you will actually have to pull to activate your avi pack?”
I think it’s a good thing to know and would recommend everyone to test the triggers sensitivity, assuming your cartridge is not connected and your pack is set up for “practice” discharges.
Stay safe everyone and be sure you know your safety gear as much as we know our sleds.
What packs are you running? The new Klim one is pretty intriguing
