You'll have no probs fitting that size board in a wheelie type bag as their significant height allows them to expand out. The Burton fish here has a nose width of 319.1mm. I layer boards in space sacks on top of each other that add a lot more width and they fit in. Length will be the crucial factor as the board will become the spine of the wheelie bag once inside so you need to get a bag that is for the right size for your board.

So the low roller will be just fine in width?

Length wise i would go for a 165 since my board is a 163. or is it better to size up when getting close to the recommended lenght?
Yep. Burton have designed a new Wheelie Gig bag for '23 and I've found the zips materials and construction are slightly more superior than Dakine. A wheelie bag will probably be a lifetime investment if you look after it.


Do not buy a bag too little or too much bigger than the board as you will have undue slop in the handle which will fold up when moving around.

Found the Jones exposition for the same price as a wheelie gik. Does anyone have experience with it and would it be a better but for that price, or is in lesser quality than darkine and Burton bags?
(The adventurer is also available for less than the low roller by a 20%, but i can't find much user infor on either Jones bags)

Are you deliberately spelling everything wrong???

1. Jones Expedition,

2. Wheelie Gig,

3. Dakine,

4. Jones Adventure,

5. info'.
