Description of DAKINE Pro 2 Backpack - 1600cu in: |
|
All day tours have nothing on the DAKINE Pro 2 Backpack. This backcountry pack can handle it all. Stash your shovel and probe into the front avie pocket, throw a puffy, your helmet, and a few PB&Js into the 1600-cubic inch interior, and skin up from dawn til dusk. When you have to hike to bag the third peak of the day, whip out your ice axe from the quickdraw sleeve, secure your ride with the vertical or horizontal carry systems, and make the final push to the summit. Before you make your descent, break out your digi from the waterproof waist-belt pocket, snap a quick pic, and go get some (again).
Bottom Line: Full days in the backcountry call for the DAKINE Pro II Pack.

| Superb Quality -- Totally Recommended 11-08-09 |

| Unbelievable. I hadn't purchased a new bag in a while, and I'd always assumed Dakine was one of those companies that created durable bags by using the toughest materials, but had terrible worksmanship or something. But boy was I wrong. I bought the Chop Shop colorway and it's simply beautiful. The worksmanship is virtually A+. This bag is designed for skiing, snowboarding and school use, but I'd have to say this bag is 80% more suitable for skiing/snowboarding than for school -- For back country use this bag is not too small nor too big (it's just about right). The reason is because the smaller top-entry to the main compartment (the one which has the glove storage) is slightly restrictive and getting large binders and laptops in and out might take a little bit more effort -- On the other hand, I can use the back-access to open that compartment but it's inconvenient because it splits the bag open in half all the way down, and the straps sometimes get in the way. The only other technical gripe I have is that I can't remove the waist belt which is unnecessary for my school use, and there aren't enough smaller internal pockets to store things like pens & stationary (but it's not a big deal). As for features there are many: There's the lined goggle pocket, waterbottle pocket on the side, hydration bladder (not included) compartment, shovel and accessory pockets, shovel handle carry, sternum straps, waist belt and waterproof camera pocket, ski and snowboard carry, compression straps, and whatever else I haven't mentioned. I adore the quality of this bag and I highly recommend it to back country and resort enthusiasts. And to top it off Dakine has a lifetime warranty on a bag of this calibre. Insane. (P.S. For reference I am 5'9" and 140 lbs and I got this bag is about $82 US shipped to Canada from steepandcheap.com.) |

| Great All Round Pack 10-01-08 |
| Grant Watson (1): |
| Ive used this pack for a season, its a great pack. Plenty of storage for the slackcountry adventurer. The snowboard carrying system works wonderfully and its nice to have the added space that the Heli Pro is lacking. If your thinking about getting the Heli Pro, get the Pro II. |

| Gotta' love this pack 09-18-08 |
| Tom Erdmann (2): |
| What can I say? What's not to love about it? Two winters ago I was using my Dakine Heli Pro, which is still a great pack, but in my opinion this pack is better. My favorite feature the large restraining system on the outside of the pack. What I am referring to is the black area on the visible back of the pack. With some packs, all of your equipment slides to the bottom. With this restraining system, however, you can tighten the straps so that your equipment stays evenly distributed throughout the entire pack. The cross carry system is great, as can always be expected from Dakine. The only drawback of this pack is the sometimes dysfunctional back pocket, but that really isn't that big of a deal. |
