Ski touring poles and backpacks

Ski touring backpacks and poles: balance and practicality on every tour

Balancing your load and maintaining flawless stability with every stride is crucial when navigating snowy terrain and steep gradients. The ski touring backpacks and poles section at Alternativa Sport, available online and at our Sistiana retail shop, offers ergonomic, ultra-lightweight solutions specifically engineered for backcountry demands, ensuring uphill comfort and uncompromised downhill stability.

Technical ski-carry packs and adjustable telescopic poles

• Ski touring backpacks: Far more than standard packs, these are specialized winter organizers. They feature dedicated quick-access compartments for your avalanche safety gear (shovel and probe), robust ski-carry systems (diagonal or A-frame), ice axe attachments, and helmet carry nets. Water-resistant fabrics and close-to-body profiles ensure the pack mimics your movements during descents.

• Ski touring poles: Essential tools for uphill propulsion and downhill balance. We stock two or three-section telescopic poles (made of high-grade aluminum or ultra-lightweight carbon) equipped with secure, fast-locking mechanisms, extended foam grips for easy handling on steep traverses, and wide powder baskets to prevent sinking into fresh snow.
