Load your quiver into the Burton Board Case, and then attach your skateboard to the outside to roll it to your pickup. The Board Case's padding protects your boards, so they don't get banged up as you travel. Boot and binding bags keep you organized, and lower board storage lets you keep a favorite deck readily accessible. When you get to your cabin, leave your skate in the truck, and throw this bag over your shoulder for the walk through the snow—the removable, super-cushioned shoulder strap makes the load manageable. Thanks to global warming, you can probably get in a morning of riding and an afternoon at the skatepark. *Available for US shipment only. - Fall 2008.
Bottom Line: The Burton Board Case—your quiver carrier of choice.
I got the 181cm Burton Board case. This bag has worked out perfectly for what I use it for. I like to travel with both a snowboard (bindings removed but in bag) and a pair of alpine skis. This bag allows me to bring both and only check one bag. Also, I am able to pack a sufficient amount of clothing and other gear (helmet, sb boots, poles, etc.) to pad my equipment and keep everything in place. No matter how I pack it all of my gear fits securely, and the bag typically weighs in around 45-48 lbs. I previously used my friends wheelie version and always ended up being overweight due to the wheel apparatus. The one complaint I have is that a small plastic piece on the shoulder strap broke on my first trip and I now have to use a different strap. No big deal though. Bottom line: get this bag and pack everything you need.
Great bag, all the features you might want/expect in a large travel bag. Room for all your gear and more...
Runs a little small - the 166 was perfect for my 156 Burton board, with a little room to spare for some additional padding on the tips. Get one while it's on sale!
This is one tough bag. The airline beats the crap out of my luggage but this bag holds up. Very roomy and well padded.
This bag is also wide enough to accomodate the highest highbacks folded down. Other bags are narrow so measure twice, buy once.
