What do you most like about the pron pack
Q & A
How do the materials in the Prōn pack compare to regular packs?
A: Prōn packs are made with Ballistic nylon and 1000 weight cordura. The P-tek plastic coated nylon provides a no-slip surface for skis and snowboards.
Q: Wouldn’t the low price of the pack imply the pack is low quality?
A: The material used to make Prōn is cost effective. It has been tested for durability and versatility. It is a high quality material that is affordable. Compared to other packs the Pron pack is competitively priced, and great value for the cost
Q: How does the pack fit both men and women?
A: The pack has adjustable waist and shoulder straps. The lumbar and shoulder pads are Velcro to be adjusted according to the contour of your body. The physical differences between men and women necessitates a pack designed to form to those differences. Pron packs were designed with this in mind. Men have larger and broader shoulder blades than women and the majority of the packs on the market are designed for men’s backs, making packs uncomfortable for women. The Pron pack features an adjustable back rest that can be rotated to fit men on one side and women on the other. The design is made to average physical specifications of all body types, maximizing comfort.
Q: Why is the unique flip-top design an advantage to Prōn?
A: Other packs are top loading. In an emergency situation, where every second counts, immediate access to organized contents is essential. Top-loading packs require the user to unload multiple items before reaching the exact item needed. This takes precious time, endangering the patient. By utilizing a flip-top design, Prōn allows for easy access to all the contents in the pack at once, enabling the user to quickly scan and select the appropriate medical item. The compartments are made of mesh so the items can easily be seen.
Q: Why are ski patrollers, EMS and search and rescue teams your primary customer target audience?
A: As members of the National Ski Patrol, we are very familiar with the needs and challenges inherent to the industry. The Pron pack was designed to meet those needs and improve them, making rescue operations easier and more successful for both the patrollers and the patients. The design is uniquely targeted toward search and rescue operations but is versatile enough to meet the needs of outdoorsmen of all types. So while ski patrollers, EMS and search and rescue teams are the main audience, the Pron pack can and has been used by many other markets.
Q: How would a customer purchase a Pron pack?
A: Customers can purchase a Pron pack by visiting the Pron Web site at www.prongear.com. Customers may also contact Pron at (435) your mom.
Q: How can a pack that is designed for ski patrollers be versatile for any sport?
A: The pack is designed for durability. The inside compressed compartments allow for multiple items to be stored without shifting around. There are also front pockets and a bladder bag for water to meet the needs of outdoorsmen of all types. For example, an extreme hiker would be able to carry the ropes, first aid, etc., needed for a long hike. An adventurous hiker, fisherman, hunter or even a soccer mom (believe it or not) will find the large quantity of storage options and compartmentalized design meets their needs.
Q: How is Prōn going to survive when other companies start making similar packs?
A: Prōn’s high-quality design and competitive price will set them apart from specialty companies, such as Conterra. Large outdoor pack companies often mass produce knock-off packs of inferior quality to be distributed in retail outlets such as Wal-Mart. These packs will not have the quality and durability of Prōn packs, making Pron the premier provider of high-end, specialized packs for the medical, search and rescue and outdoor markets.
