Heli 2.0 12L Backpack - Pear Sorbet FAQ
Does this backpack have avalanche safety features built in?
The Heli 2.0 12L includes RECCO technology, a passive reflector that lets professional rescuers using RECCO detectors locate you faster in an avalanche or if you're lost in the backcountry. It's a searchability aid, not a substitute for a transceiver, shovel, and probe, which the pack's dedicated tool sleeves and exterior shovel carry are built to hold.
Can I carry both my snowboard and skis with this pack?
Yes. It offers vertical snowboard carry with a horizontal carry option, plus a diagonal ski/splitboard carry system, so you switch setup based on terrain or hike length. Snow tool sleeves inside the main compartment and an exterior shovel blade carry keep your safety gear separate and quick to grab.
How durable is the fabric on this pack?
The body combines 100% recycled 600D polyester diamond ripstop with 100% recycled 600D coated polyester, a heavy-denier weave chosen for abrasion resistance against chairlifts, rocks, and daily loading. At 12L it's built to take repeated seasons of resort or sidecountry use without the fabric wearing thin.
Is "one size fits most" actually going to fit me comfortably?
The Heli 2.0 12L pairs a breathable mesh padded back panel with ergonomic padded shoulder straps and a 25 mm webbing hip belt with wings, so the fit adjusts around your torso rather than relying on a single fixed size. A removable sternum strap with a built-in rescue whistle adds another adjustment and safety point.
Can I run a hydration bladder or radio with this pack?
Yes, the main compartment is two-way radio handset or hydration compatible, so you can route a drink tube or clip a radio without extra accessories. A large fleece-lined goggle pocket and an exterior quick-stash pocket give you fast access to goggles or small items without opening the main body.
