2010 Active Form Technology Pack Range
Active Form Design Pack Technology With Hipbelts and shoulder straps revolutionarily designed to move with you, Black Diamonds innovative Launch and Enduro Series packs will change the way you approach any hike. Unrestricted motion, customizable fit and sleek, streamlined features set these packs apart, the result of a comprehensive design strategy called Active Form Design. Rather than focus on just one key feature of technology, Active Form Design encompasses three essential pack components: suspension (Active Frame Technology), Fit (Form-Specific Fit) and pack body construction and features (Efficient Design). The Result: a pack line that's unrivaled in real-world comfort and freedom of movement.
Active Frame Technology Mimics the mechanics of the human body by complementing your center of motion and gravity located in the belly button/lumbar region. The reACTIV and ergoACTIVE hipbelts rotate around this center of calm, and along with the arc of the SwingArm Shoulder Straps, effectively neutralizes pack bodymovement by allowing the pack to move with you.

Suspension System |
| Backpacks equipped with our patent-pending ergoACTIV suspension are designed for fast, efficient single- and multi-day travel. Our ergoACTIV suspension provides an optimal blend of full-range motion and stable support for trips that require normal to heavy loads. The ergoACTIV suspension is the synthesis of three unique design elements: SwingArm Shoulder Straps, the ergoACTIV Hipbelt and the V-Motion Frame. |
|
 |
SwingArm Shoulder Straps
These groundbreaking shoulder straps move in concert with a hiker’s stride by sliding through the bottom of the pack with low-friction cable and housing. Each strap is linked to the other by the cable, which maintains an even, balanced load across both shoulders |
 |
 |
 |
ergoACTIV Hipbelt
The key to the ergoACTIV suspension is a proprietary, custom-shaped ball joint that attaches the hipbelt to the frame. This simple, durable three-dimensional system allows the hipbelt, and by extension the backpacker, to move unrestricted in any direction. Gender- specific shape and cant provide optimal comfort. |
 |
V-Motion Frame
This 6 mm 6061 aluminum frame is built with a customizable anatomical contour that adds stability and efficiently transfers weight to the hipbelt for heavier loads. |
