Questionable design, quality materials, real disappointment I don't know what Arcteryx was thinking when they designed this pack. it is supposed to be a ski pack, and has a clever ski attachment for that purpose. However, the pack does not have a real hipbelt. Anyone who carried skis on the backpack knows that (1) skis weigh the same regardless of the pack volume, (2) skis are heavy, and (3) heavy loads are much more comfortable to carry with weight on the hips and not on the shoulders. This design completely ignores all these issues. It is a ski pack that is not suitable for carrying skis... Hence the fail grade.
