When it pauses I&#39;m usually not moving unduly fast nor am I flipping the beacon around or moving/holding it strange. This has become very frustrating and sometimes can slow me down considerably during practice if it happens 4 or 5 times as it has. Is this just how the beacon operates? If so I&#39;m selling it and getting the T2 or a Mammut. I mostly ski B/C and don&#39;t need to stare at my beacon flashing SE at me when someone actually is buried. question_136287 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 18:38:59 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Black-Diamond-Outlaw-with-Avalung-Pack-1831-1939cu-in/BLD0381M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_136237#question_136237 Black Diamond Outlaw with Avalung Pack - 1831-1939cu in<br /><br />My daughter wants this backpack for Christmas.

Is this pack too big and too much of a pain in the backside to take on the lifts at the resorts? question_135002 Wed, 28 Oct 2009 02:32:02 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Black-Diamond-Whippet-Self-Arrest-Ski-Pole/BLD1150M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_134953#question_134953 Black Diamond Whippet Self-Arrest Ski Pole<br /><br />OK I guess BD doesn&#39;t make the Whippet in a 3 piece pole like the Expeditions. I like the Expeditions because i snowboard and they&#39;re small enough to fit inside my pack or strap to the outside without towering above my head.<br /><br />Can i chop the top half of a whippet down to a better size and insert the bottom two pieces of the Expeditions or will the diameter just not match up?<br /><br />Thanks. I realize this question seems nuts if you&#39;re a skiier.<br /><br />If you look at Mr Lightcap&#39;s picture below (JJ&#39;s post) it looks like a 3-piece whippet. question_134953 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 20:30:12 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Mammut-Pulse-Barryvox-Avalanche-Beacon/MAM0047M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_134918#question_134918 Mammut Pulse Barryvox Avalanche Beacon<br /><br />Does this ship with the new version 3 software? question_134918 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 17:38:20 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/DAK0777/DAKINE-Blade-Backpack-1800cu-in.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_134724#question_134724 DAKINE Blade Backpack - 1800cu in<br /><br />does this backpack have adjustable aluminum stays like the Poacher and Guide? question_134724 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 03:31:10 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Ortovox-Professional-Alu-II-Avalanche-Shovel/ORT0051M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_134723#question_134723 Ortovox Professional Alu II Avalanche Shovel<br /><br />Is the handle on this shovel detachable? question_134723 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 03:00:25 GMT
