{"product_id":"deuter-freerider-30","title":"Freerider 30","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Deuter Freerider 30 is a backcountry day pack for skiers and boarders who go beyond the ropes. Shovel and probe sit in their own pocket, the board or skis stay strapped on while you dig through the main compartment from the back, and the back panel sheds snow instead of soaking it up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFreeriders, ski tourers and splitboarders, the two uses Deuter rate it top marks for. Think a day touring out from Guthega to the Main Range, or a hike-and-ride day off the back of Thredbo. The 4-8 kg recommended load covers safety gear, water, a spare layer and lunch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eCapacity, and what actually fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e30 litres takes a shovel and probe in the avalanche pocket, a 3 L hydration bladder, a puffy jacket, spare gloves, skins, food and a thermos. A fleece-lined pocket keeps goggles scratch-free, and the zipped hip fin pockets hold a phone and snacks.

A flexible Delrin U-frame holds the shape, padded shoulder straps and hip fins take the load, and stabiliser straps and a one-handed sternum buckle keep it still when you are making turns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eFitting it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Freerider 30 is one size for back lengths of 38-54 cm, which Deuter match to riders about 158-195 cm tall. Fit it over the layers you ride in: tighten the hip fins first, then the shoulder straps and stabilisers, and clip the sternum strap last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eAccess and organisation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnzip the back panel and the whole main compartment opens like a clamshell, with the zip running under the shoulder straps, so your skis or board can stay on the front.
