TT CARRYING SYSTEMS<br />

X1-SYSTEM<br />

High-end carrying system for heavy loads. The X1 System was<br />

developed specifically for heavy loads. It works based on a system<br />

that is as simple as it is ingenious:<br />

Two ergonomically shaped, crossed aluminium bars in frame<br />

channels 1 transfer part of the carrying load laterally to the<br />

specially padded hip strap 2 transferring the load from the back<br />

to the hips. The anatomically positioned, ultra-comfortable hip<br />

strap consists of a multi-layered hip fin with a reinforcement<br />

panel in PE. The deflected belt strap 3 makes it easier to tighten<br />

and set in position. A rubberised lumbar pad 4 between the hip<br />

fins prevents the rucksack from slipping. A short, anatomically<br />

shaped aluminium rod 5 behind it guarantees the optimum fit.<br />

The back padding 6 above it is ultra-concave in shape, sewn<br />

into chambers for better ventilation, and rests perfectly against<br />

the back with its generous technical padding. The load control<br />

straps 7 can be partially attached in two different positions for<br />

optimum setting. Soft, ergonomically shaped shoulder straps 8<br />

with height adjustment 9 increase the level of comfort. The lid is<br />

also height adjustable 10 .<br />

X LITE VARIO-SYSTEM<br />

Size-adjustable carrying system for movementintensive<br />

use. As a light version of the popular X1<br />

system, crossed shaped glass fibre rods 1 efficiently<br />

transfer the load from the shoulders to the ergonomically<br />

shaped hip strap.<br />

The lightweight GFP (glass fibre reinforced plastic)<br />

rods run inside frame channels, and so transfer the<br />

load from the shoulders to the hips. A GRP rod 2<br />

worked diagonally into the top positioning point of<br />

the rods provides lateral stability. The three-part<br />

ergonomically shaped hip strap consists of a central<br />

lumbar with a rubberised insert 3 to prevent the rucksack<br />

from slipping, as well as two comfortable hip<br />

fins 4 . They have several layers of padding and are<br />

reinforced with PE plate. Concave shaped technical<br />

back padding 5 also ensures a perfect fit. Thanks to<br />

the Tasmanian Tiger ladder adjustment 6 system, the<br />

shoulder straps 7 can easily be adjusted to the length<br />

of the user’s back.<br />

V2-SYSTEM<br />

Size-adjustable carrying system for medium to heavy loads. Two<br />

aluminium bars 1 forming an inverted "V" plus two short fibreglass<br />

reinforced bars for additional support form the central static unit.<br />

The two fibreglass reinforced bars 2 lead from the inner aluminium<br />

frame channels laterally into the hip wings. 3 The dimensions and<br />

arrangement of these reinforced bars result in an excellent combination<br />

of efficient load transmission and system flexibility. Three-part<br />

ergonomically shaped hip strap consists of a central lumbar pad with<br />

a rubberised insert 4 to prevent the rucksack from slipping, and two<br />

conically shaped hip wings. They have several layers of comfortable<br />

padding, are reinforced with a PE panel and can easily be tightened<br />

and adjusted using a deflected belt strap. 5 The new technical back<br />

padding<br />

6 consists of a number of chambers, and is conically shaped to<br />

ensure the optimum position and contact with the rucksack. The load<br />

control straps 7 can be attached in two different positions for optimum<br />

adjustment. Soft, ergonomically shaped shoulder straps 8 with<br />

height adjustment 9 further increase the level of comfort. The lid is<br />

also height-adjustable 10 .<br />

X VENT-SYSTEM<br />

Ventilated carrying system for small to medium<br />

backpacks.<br />

The X Vent System combines the clever load distribution<br />

of the X systems with the pleasant carrying<br />

comfort of a ventilation system.<br />

The two lightweight cross aluminium profiles 1 run<br />

in two channels on the rear panel of the backpack. At<br />

the top positioning point of the profile 2 the mesh<br />

3 can be tightened or loosened depending on<br />

whether ventilation is required or if the rucksack is<br />

to sit directly against the back. The carrying load<br />

is transferred laterally to the hip strap in durable<br />

Hypalon pockets 4 .<br />

The hip strap has been re-designed to be particularly<br />

ergonomic, with new panel geometry and padding for<br />

even greater comfort. If the rucksack is to be used<br />

with the mesh panel loose, i.e. against the body, then<br />

additional comfort will be provided by the secondary<br />

back padding 5 . The curved shoulder straps 6 are<br />

made of a particularly light, pleasant material.<br />
