YOUR NEW COMPANION ON DEMANDING SKI TOURS

Very lightweight, technical ski touring backpack for demanding days in the mountains

The ASCENT 30 S ski tour backpack was developed especially for men and women with short backs – the “S” in the name stands for SHORT. The back system of this backpack is significantly shorter.
Like the ASCENT 32, the ultra-light and technical ASCENT 30 S is perfect for demanding days in the mountains. That’s why we’ve focused on the IMPORTANT THINGS and thought through every detail.

This backpack is abrasion resistant but still extremely light thanks to the polyamide 100D Robic Ripstop. Despite this reduction in weight we have of course still ensured high wear comfort: The foamed 3D back system distributes the weight evenly between the hip fins and the padded shoulder straps. Features such as the circular zipper that provides quick access to your equipment, a map compartment, hydration system compatibility, as well as a diagonal ski attachment, an ice axe holder and a rope fastening, make the backpack what it is: a technical, ultra-lightweight backpack for challenging ski tours.
The ASCENT 32 S also includes our emergency card:  in the case of an emergency, the card provides information about the injured person and therefore allows for faster and more efficient treatment.

Super disappointed with this pack. The "short" length is still long, and I'm 5'5" (not that short!). The top of the straps are below the top of the pack, so the pack pushes my head forward all the time - very uncomfortable and a dangerous position to have head mobility and vision affected in the backcountry. I end up keeping the shoulders looser and hip tight, otherwise the pack sits too far down my back, interfering with glute motion. Really disappointed in this pack. Seems like Ortovox wanted to sell a short pack without actually designing one. Super disappointed with this pack. The "short" length is still long, and I'm 5'5" (not that short!).

Hi Nicole, thanks for your feedback and I'm sorry to hear that you don't like your ORTOVOX backpack. It's the first time we hear about the problem you are having and it sounds like the backpack is too big for you. The short back version backpacks have a back length of 36-44cm. It is also important that you pack your backpack correctly with heavy items close to your back and only lightweight items on top. That way your head doesn't get pushed forward and the hip belt will carry most of the weight. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have further questions. Thanks.

this bag may be the best day pack ever. i’m 6’0 and this fits perfectly on me even though it’s considered a short length bag. the construction is super good and all the zippers are sealed. the snowboard and ski straps are super intuitive and work very well and are removable. it also came w a helmet bag which is sweet. just the quality alone on this bag is superb and is up there with the best brands this bag may be the best day pack ever. i’m 6’0 and this fits perfectly on me even though it’s considered a short length bag. the construction is super good and all the zippers are sealed. the snowboard and ski straps are super intuitive and work very well and are removable. it also came w a helmet bag which is sweet. just the quality alone on this bag is superb and is up there with the best brands

Agreeing with Nicole’s message. I’m 1.67cm and unfortunately the top of the backpack reaches half way through the back of the neck.. very uncomfortable when wearing a helmet, or if I have to bend down to fix my bindings... it’s way lighter than my previous Ortovox but unfortunately too long for me.
