snowboard backpack - Snowboarding Forum

thtrussiankid01 · 01-03-2011, 04:58 PM

so im looking for a backpack that can hold a snowboard (vertically/horizontally) doesnt matter, and i want the bag to have a strap for my boots on the side. Also i want the bag to look somewhat nice cuz im gonna use it for school too. Most bags i find can hold the board but they dont have the thing to hold boots, or atleast i dont see them and theres nothing written about it. could you guys recomend me some bags

Check out the Burton Rider Pack. It has compression straps on the sides that you can probably use for your boots. I have a Burton Day Hiker, which is pretty similar except for the side straps, and I like it a lot and use it everyday. Just buy it in neutral colors if you don't like the loud designs.

I use the Dakine Mission bag. It has straps for your board and I bet you could figure out a way to hang your boot off the belt strap. I have the bag and I love it. Great for school cause it has a laptop sleeve pencil pockets and its roomy. Great for snowboarding cause like I said it got the belt strap and vertical board straps. Also it cost around the $60-$70 range.

**Almost forgot it has a sweet Goggle pocket but it is kinda hard to get to when you have the bag on**

I have a Dakine Heli Pro and I love it. It's got both vertical and horizontal board carry, and I can guarantee that you could use the straps on the bag to carry some boots. Mine also has a laptop sleeve in it so it's functional for a school setting as well. I picked mine up cheap from Sierra (trusnow) last year in the spring. It was well under the $60-70 range you're looking at.
