BLACK DIAMOND Speed Ultra 35L: The Pinnacle of Ultralight Mountaineering Performance
Experience a new paradigm of speed and efficiency in the mountains with the Black Diamond Speed Ultra 35L backpack. Engineered for the dedicated alpinist and fast-and-light enthusiast, this pack blends the high-performance DNA of a running vest with the robust feature set of a technical alpine pack. Designed for adult men and women who refuse to be weighed down, the Speed Ultra 35L is your ultimate partner for rapid ascents, technical ski mountaineering missions, and single-push rock objectives where every gram counts.
The core of the Speed Ultra 35L’s design is its revolutionary running vest-inspired harness system. This ergonomic, body-hugging fit provides exceptional stability and comfort, eliminating bounce and sway during dynamic movements. The harness features multiple on-the-go storage pockets, allowing you to access water flasks, nutrition, and essential gear without ever breaking your stride or removing the pack. This instant access to necessities is critical for maintaining momentum on long, demanding days.
Built for versatility, this pack is a master of gear organization. The main compartment offers a streamlined 35L of storage, placing it perfectly within the 31-40 L category for focused, single-day or ultralight overnight missions. For technical terrain, the Speed Ultra 35L is fully equipped. It features the trusted Black Diamond PickPockets™ for secure ice tool carry, a removable external crampon patch for sharp points, and a tuck-away rope strap for efficient rope management. The top-loading design with a drawcord skirt closure ensures your gear is protected from the elements while allowing for quick packing and unpacking.
Adaptability is key to its ultralight ethos. The pack is fully strippable for summit pushes or when you need the absolute minimum weight. You can remove the floating top lid, the foam backpanel/bivy pad, and the hipbelt to shed significant weight, transforming it into an even more streamlined ascent machine. This modularity allows you to customize the pack precisely for the objective at hand, from a fully-featured carry to a minimalist summit pack. When you need to move fast, light, and with purpose, the Black Diamond Speed Ultra 35L sets the standard for high-alpine performance.
