Not much use in the east but I thought it was pretty cool.

Wow, interesting stuff. It's basically a life vest.

not really all that new, i believe there are other 'balloon' like systems out there. as always, best avalanche survival equipment is your brain. if you are involved in an avi, you screwed up. these types of "safety"devices concern me because it could lead people to be less cautious during assessment, unconsciously if not fully consciously.
