Looking for a travel bag that i can use to cart my 132 and two kite with harness and bars.
Any suggestions on what type is a good one, so i can throw it up on my roof rack,and their will be the occasional trip on plane.
I have heard the North combi is not bad.
Cheers Cam

I've been really happy with my dakine BTS. Splits in half so you can take what you need.

I have the mystic gearbox, Is pretty good but when its half empty its a bit floppy and can be a pain when rolling it thru airports!!

can anyone recommend a bag that can carry kiteboards and gear but also be used to carry snowboards and snow gear.

A wheelie bag thats about 162cm long and can be locked with padlocks would be great but most snow bags arent wide enough for kiteboards

any good shops around the mid north coast, central coast and sydney that stock a good range?

cheers

Yep me too. Should fit snow boards as well and you have the option of only taking half the bag if you have less gear. I think I got mine online thru kite power.

I have used my snowboard bag for both snowboard and kite holidays numerous times. I can get 2 kites twintip, harness, bar, pump + some clothes in. It is an ocean earth not sure what it's called but it can also fit 2 x 165cm snowboards.

One of my mates gets all his gear in his surfboard bag.

We have a good range of travel bags in stock. My personal choice is the Cabrinha wakeboard bag, its a big rectangle easy to pack, has wheels and does not cost the earth. Second choice would be the dakine BTS, if you get hit at the check in with an overweight bag it just zips into 2 separate bags.

Do you know if you can by the Dakine BTS as seperate sections?
I picked up one half (top half without the wheels) of the Dakine BTS at a Surfing Brand Factory Outlet for next to nothing. Just wondering if the bottom half could be purchased seperately to complete the bag?

I have a Dakine bag I bought a few years back (not sure of the model). I've hardly used it as I ride surfboards. Will let it go for a couple of cartons
