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 :-)

Which ski bag?

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
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

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 Laughing

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 Laughing

Broadway, just bought 2 'Snowboard Asylum' Team Wheelie bags from Ellis Brigham. Will easily fit 3 pairs of skis as long as not too long.

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 Evil or Very Mad Might have to look for a larger one.

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.
