10 Tips for Packing a Snowboard Bag

[@mkvalentine1]

Good tips. I also pack gaffers tape/duct tape in case the bag gets a tear from baggage claim (this has happened the past few trips). This way, you can easily repair the bag during the trip. I also take a picture of the bag and contents in case the airline loses the bag (rare but could happen).

[@SnowboardProCamp]

Good advice! I’ve had my bags roughed up a few times.

[@ScottyInVancouver]

Ah now days having airtag would be perfect ! Just in case they lose it..

[@z06zn6]

Nice use of socks! I also use the space in the boots and bindings to protect things which can be crushed. My goggles fit nicelt inside my bindings. Other stuff like toiletries, gopros, go in bags into the boots. When I fly, I usually wrap the board tip and tails with homemade cardboard caps that slide on and off. It's amazing how much stuff can fit in a snowboard bag.

[@kaitscott5768]

I agree with a lot of this except the helmet. My helmet goes in my carry on cause I've seen them chuck bags at the airport and if your helmet hits while in transport it's not going to protect your head like it should. Helmet and goggles go in my backpack where I can make sure they're safe and sometimes if I'm low on space/weight I'll wear my big jacket on the flight.

[@SnowboardProCamp]

That’s a good point!

[@CarleyPrice-s5d]

Who does the lovely doggy belong to???

[@inmotion_snow]

never thought of using socks between boards, super useful if you dont have a plastic cover for your board. I also like to put things inside the bindings, like a beacon for example that needs to be protected from weight

[@SnowboardProCamp]

The socks work great!

[@chrisbauman2562]

I took a cheap rug from Walmart,cut a few rectangles the length of a board and I put those in between my boards in my bag. Works great and very protected and takes up zero space

[@SnowboardProCamp]

Haha, thanks man!

[@jeremy_beckers]

Honestly I always size up when it comes to a snowboard bag. It’s better to have more room than not enough.

[@SnowboardProCamp]

I like to a little extra length but not too much.

[@rampageblizzard]

your dog is a good assistant! haha

[@SnowboardProCamp]

The best!

[@SevenL]

Wah you are still losing spaces!!!... You can protect small things by putting them in your boots and i'm also using spaces in the bindings to store gloves, buff and even extra goggles! XD

[@SnowboardProCamp]

Boots can be good for sure to pack small things!

[@saguilanuriel1866]

Nice tips thank you brother for your time!!!

[@SnowboardProCamp]

No worries!

[@TimKeh]

Hahaha Jake on the bag at the end. 😂

[@NisSubieTechA]

I've heard it's better to do carry-on with boots because the airline could lose the board bag. If that happens, you still have your comfortable boots and can rent a board.

[@toom2141]

Woah... I am happy you did not put your dog inside the bag by accident.... Although his format would fit nicely 😁

[@marcelsteinkemper1903]

I use the Burton Big Bag. My mom made some wraps from some blanlets. For all the boards.

[@PNW_DK]

Nice video.. impressed you got 4 boards in there

[@ecconick]

This was a great tutorial... almost better than snowboarding tips. Seriously, very cool. Can you recommend a snowboard bag w/wheels?

[@SnowboardProCamp]

Thanks! I’ve been using the Dakine High Roller the past few years.

[@ecconick]

@@SnowboardProCamp i think i'll be getting this one for the snowboards

[@peterpie2258]

Why don't you put your boots in the boot compartments?

[@Adam_Stoke]

What waxing iron/setup do you take with you when you travel? Seeking good product(s) here and would be stoked to follow some affiliate links to quality choices.

[@lillalissa]

Great video! If you only have 1 board, would it be better to take off the bindings or just let them stay on the board in the bag while traveling? Thanks!

[@SnowboardProCamp]

It’s fine to just keep them on

[@lillalissa]

@@SnowboardProCamp Alright, I will do so then! 😊

[@Bad_Riders]

Good tips! Tip 1 always get overlooked! Another tip is try to maximise the internal compartment. Oh and then theres issue of weight.

[@BrooklynBoy206]

Is the internal compartment the zipped flap underneath the plastic? I assumed soft clothes was good there to act as padding

[@brit1259]

Excellent packing tips. What advantage is the insulated bag? Or was it just padded?

[@jasonkieger2304]

I love that your dog was helping. My wiener dog would have sat in the bag and i would have had to move her to start filling it up.

[@SnowboardProCamp]

Haha, Jake was right into the packing!

[@vinaybondada3714]

Thanks for the input. Unfortunately, this bag comes only in 2 sizes. I use a board of 150 cm and 165 cm is too big.Could you please suggest me a bag? Thank you.

[@ajamico]

Most roller bags will also come in a 157.

[@EmilyVidd]

I layer my clothes in the clear plastic bag my snowboard came in. I prefer putting boots and helmet in boot bag as a carry on. I keep my bindings attached to my boots in the boot bag.

[@BoomyMcBoom]

Class video could I ask a question? I’m about to buy a new roller bag and wondered is it worth going for the biggest bag possible to fit as much gear in or does buying a bag too big for your boards have a negative impact? I ride similar sizes boards to you should I buy a 165 or go for it and get a 175 to fit more in? I’ll be using the bag frequently to visit family who live in France and thought I could get away with never booking suitcase luggage if I could squeeze everything in the snowboard bag! Cheers Maximus

[@SnowboardProCamp]

The 175 will droop too much and drag because your boards won’t be long enough. The 165 is a much better fit and will roll better.

[@BoomyMcBoom]

@@SnowboardProCamp thank you brother I’ll go for the 165 🏂👌🏽

[@pratchsiri7153]

Need to protect the edge same as a surfboard ? As surfboard so softer Alan so very easy to get damage

[@JohnGrogans]

Hey Kevin. What brands of snowboard bags are good to use? I’m looking to buy one soon but not sure what to get.

[@SnowboardProCamp]

I’ve had a DAKINE bag now for about 6 years. The DAKINE High Rolller.

[@JohnGrogans]

@@SnowboardProCamp Ok

[@vajona2495]

What was the weight with all that in your bag?

[@michaelt9245]

packing cubes are also helpful

[@SnowboardProCamp]

I need to get some of those!

[@michaelt9245]

@@SnowboardProCamp pull up to marshalls or Tjmaxx they are the best to keep all your baselayers in order they make it a breeze to live out the bag

[@georgedunham7311]

I’ve got a 148cm board, would a 156cm bag be okay?

[@martinez4718]

Good one ;)

[@VPRLxcid]

oi but we aint going to the airport tho ???

[@morriw9791]

is the roller bag a pessary for flight travel? can you pack it in regular soft bags?

[@SnowboardProCamp]

I highly recommend a roller bag. Saves your bag not having to lug it around.

[@morriw9791]

@@SnowboardProCamp thank you for your advice! Got a roller bag for my self. Any tips for check-in luggage? I plan to have sweaters as protection, would that be strong enough?

[@snowvissie]

Three boards wow..must be nice...

[@julien1402]

Great video thanks to you and your wiener dog ! I never travelled with my snowboard but will have to soon, was thinking about squeezing as many items as possible, I was thinking about my rollerblades. my question from there is the following: when you're at the airport do they open your bag to verify that the content is only "ski/snowboard" related? And do they check the limit weight (50 lbs or 23 kg)? If anybody can answer this that would be sweet thanks guys 🙂

[@christiancortez1505]

What bag is this?

[@SnowboardProCamp]

It a Dakine High Roller bag

Can you give me a board recommendation I’m 13 and I like doing butters but also park

[@johnvaughan5287]

Such a sausage dog thing to be doing when a bags being packed 😂

[@JayJay-cx5te]

add an airtag and you're set

[@leew5906]

pack the dog as well hahaha

[@talk2frank2010]

Wouldn't recommend the helmet in there, if it takes a big hit and you don't know about it, it could be a safety issue

[@bhank07]

airlines got me with the length charge broooo gotta be rocking less than 157 to avoid that!! wtf!

[@SnowboardProCamp]

Oh really! Never been busted on the length before.

[@bhank07]

@@SnowboardProCamp damn must be a united airline thing. flew from LAX direct to Steamboat Springs, CO.

[@inmotion_snow]

that's harsh! mine has never been checked before in any airline that I have used

[@Art1ight]

DC boots instead Nidecker? Why?

[@Clluthu]

I assume cause he likes laces over lacing systems. people with bigger/wider feet may prefer more control over the tightness of areas on the laces.

[@annekecornee]

Tip 11: check if you haven't packed the dog inside the bag ;-)

[@williamsegalla4858]

Forgot to pack the dog
