This new product of Arva is an active safety equipment designed to prevent burial in an avalanche. The principle is based on the deployment of an airbag aerodynamics that reduce the volume of the carrier to raise the weight toward the surface while holding and increase its lift. Its tripping is ensured by a handle positioned on the adjustable strap and the bag containing a gas capsule. Thanks to its ingenious system of airbag triggering it is of solid reliability. Use sparingly !
The challenge of the film was for us to recreate the conditions of use of the backpack in a hostile environment while addressing necessarily its technical aspects. Using an animated subjective camera we were able to recreate the path of gas on triggering and thus enhance the immersive effect of the film.
