As it says what's the difference please? Is it just the retractable cable thingy? Thanks a lot

I think the DLX has a small pouch on the waist strap and a deployable water bottle holder. Dakine website would have exact specs.

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

Was looking at these two recently, ski carry system is same, liked DLX because it has insulated hydrator sleeve, Pro doesn't

Just been looking in detail on website. I am interested in the womens models. So I am now in between the Wmns Heli Pro DLX and the Wmns Heli Pack, basically the same pack, the latter being smaller at 11l compared to the former at 18l.
The main differences between the Pro and the Pro DLX seem to be the insulated sleeve, the waist pocket and whether the diagonal ski carry is cable or webbed loop. The other main difference is whether there is A frame carry or not.
The Heli Pack seems to do it all as well as the DLX (except for the waist pocket and one snowboard carry) but is smaller.
Mmmmm decisions decisions

I took a look at them yesterday, the 11L pack isn't very big.

Claude B, thanks very much, that confirms it then as I had more or less decided to go with the Heli Pro DLX.

I've just bought a Dakine Baker which is sized between the 2, might be worth thinking about if you haven't already purchased.

The big difference is the floating back panel on the DLX compared to padding on the HeliPro. IMV it makes the DLX more comfortable.
