 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi
My first post here, so firstly a big hello to all!
I'm looking for some advice / guidance please. I want to buy a high quality double ski bag that will also take 2 pairs of boots, poles etc. etc.
I've looked at the Dakine Concourse Double on their website, which looks as if it might fit the bill. Does anybody know of any better options?
Many thanks.

awclymm, welcome to snowHeads.
Try this http://skibag-lokker.deal-net.co.uk/
I have the Team Double Ski Bag and it's a good size and very sturdy. Only drawback is that it won't accommodate skis more than 180cm long so might not be suitable for you.

I have a Dakine Fall Line Double which will fit 2 pairs of skis, poles and 1 pair of boots with room to spare. Only consideration is the size of the boots. My OH has 24.5 and they fit but my 29.5 don't!

glp9 I have the Dakine Fall line and big boots too and I put the boots in the main bag rather than in the allocated boot pockets. I tend to use the bag only when the airline has a 1 bag luggage limit (eg BA) and stuff it full of clothes etc.
OH has trouble using the bag though as her skis are too short and the bag folds along its length meaning that it drags along the ground rather than rolls on its wheels. The bag comes in two lengths and I have the 190cm which makes the problem worse. The 170cm bag might work better for her.
It would easily take two pairs of skis and two pairs of boots (one pair in the main body of the bag). The issue would be weight. It would be well over 20kg but would be well within the 32kg of the maximum allowed by most airlines (charges and terms apply).

This bag takes my 176cm skis, my boots, and all the unneccessary cr*p I feel the need to take skiing.
The delivery was spot on -£5 for next day fed ex- and the bag is as tough as the Berghaus and TNF gear I've owned in the past for trekking.
Also £59.99 is an absolute steal
