New-school skier and old-school punker Seth Morrison had a heavy hand in the cosmetic update of Black Diamond’s award-winning Bandit AvaLung backpack (MSRP: $170). The low-profile minimalist pack combines a zippered main compartment offering enough volume for a shovel, probe, hydration bladder and a couple of cold-weather extras with an integrated AvaLung that could help keep you alive if you’re buried in a slide. The pack comes in only one size690 cubic inches, 2 pounds, 5 ounces and 19 inches long — but also is available without the 9-ounce AvaLung for $70.
