"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I reach for the Freerider 28 SL when I’m heading out for a quick day tour and want something lightweight without giving up any functionality. It carries surprisingly well for its size, and the U-zip access is a lifesaver when I need to grab an extra layer or snack mid-skintrack.""From early morning laps to bluebird backcountry tours, the Deuter Freerider 28 SL Backpack is our go-to pack for streamlined comfort and organization. Designed specifically with the SL fit for smaller frames, it balances snugly on our backs while still offering a full feature set for ski mountaineering or sidecountry days. With features like a snow-shedding back panel, quick-access avalanche gear pocket, and both diagonal and side ski carry options, this pack keeps our gear secure and easy to access when it counts. The roll-top expandable volume gives us a little extra space when needed, and fleece-lined pockets keep goggles and valuables protected. Made with bluesign®-approved, 100% recycled fabric, it’s a responsible pick for our winter pursuits."
