Hi
I need to get a ski bag sorted, im planning of taking 3 pairs of ski with me so need something big enought that will safely carry 3 pairs of ski's?
Was looking at either the Dakine concourse or a Scott wheeled bag
(http://scottusa.com/product/1186/6251/ski_wheel_bag)
which out of them two would be best suited ?
or if anyone know of another bag i should look at let me know ?
Cheers

Broadway, can;t help, but I thought the post thread was asking if someone else needed a ski bag......

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

My Dakine is ace..
Broadway, you should get 3 pairs in the dakine but I wouldn't bet on getting your boots in there as well. Ring them up and ask them.... they might even have a 3 ski bag kicking about!
Edit; them being any shop

arv, how well padded is the dakine concourse ? I'm not to worried about not getting my boots in there as well as long as I could get 3 pairs of ski's!
Thanks

Broadway, enough.... Can always bubble wrap or use clothes and stuff!
I think what mite work.. pair of skis along the bottom, bases against the bottom of the bag, 1 ski on each side (bases pointing out) and a pair down the middle of that. Should do the trick as long as they aren't super fats. If you have 3 pairs of Praxis Pows then I would keep looking

My new planks are a bit wide for my old single bag once you factor in the protective foam kip mat and half of my ski clothes wrapped round them Might have to look for a larger one.

You know it makes sense.

Sideshow_Bob, I don't like my dakine because I can only get skis and boots in, nothign else really so have to carry another bag, plus I'm not comfortable dragging it all over , it just feels bulky, too long and too heavy - it's a "me" thing really, I'm not that tall

Broadway, if you are near Decathlon you could look there. I got a large wheeled bag from there recently, I think it is like the Dakine one. It is bigger than the S&R equivalent. It is very padded. I think you could get 3 pairs of skis in it and pack it out with other stuff. Worth a look if you are near, it was about £90. EB have a very large bag too which I was considering but didn't get chance to go and look at it so bought the Decathlon one.
