Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Burton Space Sack. Poor build quality, tight fit and absolutely no padding whatsoever.

cookie monster, I went to snow and rock with the intention of just picking up a basic board bag. I got a bit carried away and ended up walking out with a Da Kine High Roller, but despite the fact it was quite a lot more than I'd planned to spend Shocked it's been great -- well padded, tough, and enough space in there for my boots, jacket, pants, goggles, gloves, socks, thermals, two fleeces, a couple of icebreakers, some impact shorts, my tuning kit and a spare towel. Actually, now I come to think of it, everything I needed - my hand luggage for the flight was just a change of clothes, a wash bag and a fat book.

They do a smaller version as well I think (the "low roller") and if it's similarly well constructed I think it could be a good buy.

I got a dub one off ebay for about 75 notes. Sweet

It's big, got wheels and has pockets for all the hardware bits ('driver tool', 'tape', spare bolts, edge screws etc.) plus came with a couple of inside 'bags' for putting kit in it. Done 3x trips so far now and the only issue is the junk I get of my mates for having the phatest bag in town..

Another vote for the dakine one - decent re-inforced walls, however slighly excessive for 154 boards!

I have got a £8 job from Lidl! Embarassed

Padded at the bottom. I have just come back from Austri and in it I put the board, pair of boots, Ski jacket and a sleeping back without trouble...
I don't think you would that much more in it. Got straps so it can be carried on as a backpack..Good quality quite good considering the price..
Not the best looking though..

Kruisler, I got one of those from Lidl and they are quite strong and the back pack straps are useful, but not tried fitting boots in - did you really get boots in?

I have had two other cheapy bags and both fell apart on the first/second trip, the cheapy simple board bag had the straps ripped off in transit (any one tried carrying a board bag without straps?) and my demon wheelie bag from bargain boards was run over in the airport carpark which I think resulted in it falling apart - the corner split open and the zip broke.

The lidl one is the best i have had so far

rayscoops,

On my Lidl bag last week: 1x160cm board+bindings, 1 pair of boots (size Cool, ski jacket, sleeping bag (small) and 3 tubs of brown sauce (that was the rent! wink )

All that fitted quite easily. What I would say though is that you might be in trouble if you have larger bindings and/or boots, as with mines it seemed that anything larger might give trouble...but it was Ok for me! snowHead

I flew with Ryanair and the bag is still in perfect condition. Not signs of stitches falling apart. The straps were very handy and the bag nicely compact and easy to handle I thought...So at £8, I don't see where anyone can go wrong..

The fact that it was compact was defo a plus as we'd hired an Astra estate for 4 of us. Had to fit 3 board bags, one ski bag, one pair of ski boots, 3 suitcases/big bags and 4 adults in the car (with no roof rack)...we did it! Shocked Cool
