Product Testing

During the testing of Safeback SBX, we have conducted field tests and participated in independent research in the following areas:

Independent Medical Trial: Full Burial Testing

Published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, after an avalanche simulation in 2023, where 24 volunteers were buried to test and better understand the effects of Safeback SBX.

Snow Burial Simulations

To confirm the findings of our modeled research, we created burial simulations to test iterations of our system and measure the actual airflow it generated in the snow.

Practical Field Testing

The system has been developed to withstand harsh conditions and tough use, in temperatures down to -30 degrees - requiring rigorous testing of all components individually, and as a system.
