Free Rider 22 Ski/Snowboard Backpack

About the Ortovox Free Rider 22

What is the Ortovox Freerider 22 good for?

Designed for dynamic freeriding in varied and demanding mountain terrain. It provides close contact with your body for controlled, confident movement on technical descents, while offering just enough space to carry essential gear. Whether you’re dropping into steep gullies or navigating through tight trees, this backpack supports your ride without getting in the way.

How will some of the key features of the Ortovox Freerider 22 enhance my experience?

The ergonomic CLASP FLEX BELT and flexible back panel keep the pack snug and balanced, giving you total freedom without restricting movement. The option to add a certified spine protector gives added peace of mind for more exposed terrain. External features like ski, helmet and ice axe attachment points are cleverly stashed to avoid snagging, while compression straps let you cinch the load close for a second-skin fit. Inside, quick-access compartments separate safety gear from the rest, so your avalanche kit is always ready to grab. All of this is wrapped up in a compact, eco-conscious design made from recycled polyester and free from harmful PFCs.
