RESQSKI Ski Finder System
One of those products where we have talked about making over apres-ski but never had time, the RESQSKI system means no more powder tracers, offering a digital way of finding buried skis from 30 metres away. For off-piste skiers losing a ski is an ever-present fear. The ski planes under the powder and disappears in seconds. It can end up 10 metres away from where you fall. It can take 10 minutes / a half hour – or never – to find. It can ruin your day and at best disrupt the enjoyment of the rest of the ski group waiting for you. RESQSKI offers a high tech solution that offers great value for money when you consider the cost of a lost ski/binding or valuable skiing time on the mountain. RESQSKI finds buried skis up to 30 metres away and buried up to 1 metre deep.
RESQSKI’s ski homing tags are waterproof and shockproof. Removable tags have a neat switch that means batteries hardly ever have to be replaced. Easy to fit straight from box. how does it work? RESQSKI works using RF (radio frequency) technology. RESQSKI should not interfere with the operation of avalanche transceivers. Avalanche transceivers operate at 457 KHZ. RESQSKI operates at frequency 2.45 GHZ. A credit card–sized handheld transceiver communicates with specially developed homing tags that lead you to the lost ski using flashing lights and sonic beeps. The lights move from red to green and the beeps get ever louder and more frequent as you get closer to the ski. Each tag is ‘registered’ to a specific numbered button on the Handheld so that your skis can be searched
individually by the Handheld. Another set of ski tags (purchased separately) can be registered to buttons 3 & 4 on the Handheld. The tags are designed so that the Homing tag can be taken out of the Base Tag for storage. A Dummy tag is supplied to fill the Tag Base to give a clean, streamlined appearance when RESQSKI is not needed for operation. The batteries can be replaced if required, and if the units are switched on and off each day will offer a season of operating power. Even if left on, the units offer 12-15 weeks of power, and the battery status can be easily identified thanks to the red LED light when turned on. BOX CONTENTS One credit card size locating transceiver with 1 x CR2032 battery One pair of base units, which apply to the ski topsheets and have dummy plugs for
when not in use One pair of homing units, which clip into the base units and activate simply by turning, with 4 x LR54 batteries (2 per unit) Instructions A very simply but effective way of finding a ski when things go wrong in powder. No system is faultless, but with a 30 metre surface range and 1 metre depth this should find a lost ski in most challenging conditions, and does so without the faffing around with powder tracers. I have a set mounted on my Kastles as losing one skis will end up costing you a new pair ultimately, and I dont fancy the bill for that, and I have to say I am pretty prone to losing things out on the mountain :o)
