The key to the Altras carrying comfort is the C2 back system, a low profile suspension sheet keeps the centre of gravity close to your back & transfers the weight efficiently onto the hips.   Its simple, uncluttered & highly efficient.   Combine this with the fully adjustable Gridlock shoulder straps & the Load Transfer Disc hip belt & you have the ultimate carrying system.   Gridlock means that you can completely remove & independently adjust the straps horizontally & vertically to get a completely customised fit.   Load Transfer Disc lets the padded hip belt pivot as you walk allowing unrestricted movement & ultra efficient load transfer.   The hip belt can also be completely removed for travel security & cleaning. The Altra has a pear shape design which helps to keep the pack load low & close to your back minimising load movement & backward pull for ultra efficient carrying. A high density polyethylene foam back panel provides comfort & support, aided by twin aluminium M stays for structural integrity.   Shoulder straps use Hypercell foam, an open structure polyurethane foam that provides structure & comfort.   All the fabrics on the Altra are rip stop nylon with higher density weaves on abrasion areas.   All the fabric is silicone coated to repel water & dirt & then backed with PU for additional protection & strength. One of the best features of the Altra is the Wingman hip pockets, angled perfectly to allow easy access whilst carrying the pack they will accommodate 1 litre water bottles & anything else you need instant access to.   An external kangaroo pocket, basically a large bellow front pocket with zipped access & a top compression strap, will swallow extra kit & then compress down when not required. Access to the main compartment can be either through the top lid or via the ingenious U Zip.   It acts as quick access on either side, or by unclipping the bottom flap; you can completely unzip the whole bag to get massive access to all your kit. Poles can be attached using the compression straps & ice axes are easily stored & removed using the Pax one handed axe attachment system.   Basically you can remove an ice axe without taking off the pack by simply reaching round & drawing the axe downwards to release it. ...

This clever chalk bag from Arcteryx uses a twisting action to open & close the bag. This action makes it so easy to quickly get at your chalk, especially if youve forgotten to open the bag before you start climbing. Simply unpopper the top of the chalk bag & it will fall open with a spiral motion to give you quick dipping. When youre all done, twist it closed & the fabric seals on itself to secure the chalk inside. This revolutionary design means you no longer have to worry about your chalk bag leaking out all over your shoes and especially your lunch! This large size has an opening diameter of 11cm & is perfect for those with bigger hands & needing more chalk. The other advantage of this twist closure is that it shrinks the overall pack size of the chalk bag so it takes up less room on your harness or in your pack. The Aperture is supplied with a fully adjustable waist strap for easy donning, & the belt attachment even doubles up as a bottle opener. The reinforced rim keeps its circular shape to make it dead easy to get your hands into the chalk when youre pumped out on the crux.
