Stone Glacier's Xcurve Frame offers outstanding comfort and durability in a lightweight package. It utilizes 4 carbon fiber composite stays in an "X" formation - this design conforms to the curvature of the user's lumbar and upper back to optimize weight distribution and increase comfort under heavy loads. The unique "X" stay configuration increases both vertical frame strength and eliminates any lateral shift, especially for loads over 100 pounds. Other features of the Xcurve frame include the Powerlock hip belt with a locking forward assist to eliminate the risk of webbing slip even under heavy loads. The tighter the belt is adjusted, the tighter the lock on the webbing. The adjustable upper and lower tensioners cups the user's hips, allowing the full width of the belt pressure to be equalized regardless of body shape. Additionally, the shoulder straps vertical torso can be adjusted to match shorter torsos, and feature increased foam density for comfort. The Xcurve is compatible with all past and present SG bags and uses the same load shelf features and function that all Stone Glacier hunting packs are known for.
