The Avi Vest is a life saving device designed to increase the individuals’s volume in the event of an avalanche. This will help the avalanche victim to stay on the surface during the avalanche. The Avi Vest will not protect you from injury or death caused by trauma, misuse or poor decisions. The safest way to avoid being injured in an avalanche is to avoid being caught. Please check your local avalanche advisory before entering avalanche terrain.
