Items Excluded from 60 Days returns:

SKIS – When we sell a pair of skis, we remove the protective packaging and wax the skis to ensure they are ready for use. We will also mount bindings to your requirements (if applicable).

Your statutory rights are not affected so if there is a defect with the skis please get in touch and we will remedy this with the supplier as per their warranty process.

Ortovox Free Rider 22 Freeriding Backpack in Dark Wild Herbs

Season:2026/2027

Brand:Ortovox

Code:46810-62701

The Ortovox Free Rider 22 is a compact, close-fitting freeriding backpack designed for full freedom of movement.

This backpack fits snugly against the back when freeriding in any terrain, acting like a second skin. This is primarily due to the flat, elasticated CLASP FLEX BELT, which provides control and reliable support. The soft back pads hug the back perfectly without restricting the movements of the spine. The back of the backpack can be fitted with the CLASP SPINE PROTECTOR (sold separately), which slides easily into a separate inner pocket and is certified to motorcycle standards.

To adjust the backpack while on the go, it can be quickly compressed using integrated side straps and folded into a flat-fitting shape. When rappelling into steep gullies or during walking passages, the backpack offers attachment options for skis, an ice axe, or rope, alongside a helmet net, emergency card, and hydration system compatibility. Emergency equipment can be stowed in a separate safety compartment, while the main compartment is accessible via front or back access.
