Expand your winter backcountry horizons with the revolutionary syncpack frontpack!
By moving some of the carried weight to the front of your body, the syncpack frontpack system balances your load and improves your experience when skiing with a heavy pack.
Empower yourself to go farther and do more with a new level of balance and comfort!
The syncpack system:
- Improves balance and body alignment for better skiing performance. With your center of gravity restored to its natural position and your upper body in a natural, relaxed, and upright posture, your skiing performance while wearing a pack is dramatically improved - whether you are skinning uphill or making turns.
- Eliminates the backward pull on your shoulders, so you don't have to lean forward to counterbalance your backpack. Read more about syncpack biomechanical details.

Backcountry skiing professionals love it! Here is what utahskiandsnowboard.com had to say about using it to carry professional video gear into the backcountry:
"In our business [back-country ski videography], it's sometimes tough to find a convenient and effective way to carry camera gear onto the hill. . . . [W]e've finally found our solution with a revolutionary new 400 cu. in. frontpack design from Syncpack. . . [H]onestly, we pretty much forgot that we were wearing it while skiing or skinning. . . . [W]e found the balancing act played out especially well while skiing -- despite a load of gear we no longer felt the need to lean forward to balance the backpack's rearward pull. . . . The amount of design work that went into this system is positively stunning.”
