As people who recreate in the mountains, we try to plan to avoid worst-case scenarios. We check the avalanche and weather forecast meticulously, we pack emergency items and first-aid kits in case something goes wrong, and we bring avalanche safety gear as a proactive measure (but hope we’ve done our job making smart decisions and never need to use it). But of course, in the mountains, things can always go wrong. Injuries are just one of the things we try to prepare for.
Your standard health insurance should cover most incidents. But in some cases, your insurance won’t cover everything. (Even a broken wrist can wind up costing you thousands in medical bills.) Supplemental insurance to cover injuries can cost a lot if you’re on your own, but they’re less if you buy them in a group. So, here’s an idea: What if everyone who likes, say, skiing and riding bikes and wants emergency injury insurance for those just-in-case moments started a group?
That’s the concept behind Blister+, the subscription service from our friends over at Blister, home to the most in-depth and vetted outdoor-gear reviews on the internet. Blister+ gets you access to those reviews, but it also now includes comprehensive outdoor-injury insurance coverage. This vital community insurance plan provides up to $25,000 in coverage per incident with a zero-dollar deductible for adventure sports ranging from skiing to mountain biking to climbing and kayaking. This coverage is especially valuable for covering deductibles.
Last year, Flylow became the first outerwear company in the ski industry to offer Blister+ coverage to its international athlete team and we’re offering that to our team again this year.
For $395 a year, you get 12 months of emergency coverage, with no age restrictions and no out of network restrictions. It includes emergency evacuations and global coverage, drastically cutting your out-of-pocket expenses.
We are offering our customers a $20 discount on a Blister+ subscription using the following code: BLISTER+Flylow20.
This $20 off promotion will be valid for one month only.
