Drawing on the experience of guides and backcountry enthusiasts, the Rescue Bubble design addresses many of the factors that can slow down a mountain rescue scenario:

No assembly required

Total weight 1000g (2.5 lb.)

Inside loops hold skis in place creating a stable and rigid sliding surface

Sled can be used with both, one or no skis, positioned under or alongside the occupant

Rescue Bubble occupant can be transported while prone or sitting

Occupant is protected from snow and rope abrasion by waterproof nylon snow guard

Sled base is durable waterproof material with a cold crack of -55 º Celsius

Pulls with a low center of gravity

Front and back tow loops built with room to ski

Seven side and head handles to carry or transfer the occupant onto a stretcher

Packaged in a compact nylon stuff sac

Although primarily a rescue sled, the Rescue Bubble has been designed to have multiple functions in the backcountry. Variations include a bivy sac, a gear sled or an emergency shelter.
