Pieps - Technical know-how for dangerous situations
Even if the pleasure at the summit often seems to know no bounds, the dangers of alpine sports can hardly be underestimated. Pieps is one of the world's leading innovators who have tackled the safety problems in skiing.
Saving technologies for skiers - equipment from Pieps here at XSPO
Whether it's a serious fall or an unpredictable avalanche event: Freeriders and anyone who enjoys being off-piste should be aware of the dangers on the mountain and carry appropriate equipment to react appropriately in tricky situations.
For more than 40 years, the Austrians from Pieps have therefore been dealing with equipment for skiers who like to explore the summit region on their own and bring a certain spirit of discovery with them. Here at XSPO we carry state-of-the-art avalanche airbags as well as shovels, transmitter systems and backpacks for the ambitious freerider. Using the filter function in our online shop, you can quickly find the components you need, which you can then buy cheaply online.
An all-round well thought-out design characterizes Pieps airbags as well as shovels and backpacks. Low weight, maximum robustness and functionality are in the foreground, so that in dangerous situations a quick reaction is possible without any problems. After all, in the worst case, this can be the difference between life and death - no matter how experienced and sporty the user may be.
The shovels are made of aluminum alloy with a special surface coating and have sharpened edges so that they can easily handle hard snow. Meanwhile, three antennas on the avalanche transceiver enable pinpoint location, while the airbags form a 200-liter breathing cavity in the event of burial, significantly increasing the chance of survival.
