BCA Float™ 42 Avalanche Airbag 2.0

Our highest-volume Float pack, designed for pros, ski patrollers, guides, and those heading out for long tours and overnights. With a dedicated rescue tools compartment, multiple ski and snowboard carry options, helmet carry, a fleece-lined goggle sleeve, internal accessory pockets, and BC Link™ radio compatibility, this pack has space for everything you need for a big day out in the backcountry. The 150-liter airbag is designed to increase buoyancy and help reduce burial depth while providing head and neck coverage. The system operates with a compatible Float 2.0 compressed-air cylinder.

Cylinder & Deployment Checks
Before each trip, confirm that a compatible Float 2.0 cylinder is full and correctly connected. Inspect the trigger, airbag, zipper paths, and leg strap, and practice deployment according to the manual.
Refill & Service
After deployment, have the cylinder refilled through a qualified refill service and inspect the complete system as directed. Do not use a damaged cylinder or attempt unapproved modifications or refilling methods.
Fabric & Hardware Care
Brush off snow and dirt, then spot clean with mild soap and water. Do not machine wash or dry. Air dry the pack fabrics and back panel fully away from direct heat, and inspect zippers, straps, and carry attachments for damage.
Storage & Avalanche Training
Store the system dry and follow the manual for battery or cylinder storage. An airbag does not guarantee survival; carry a beacon, shovel, and probe, check the avalanche forecast, and obtain proper rescue and decision-making training.
