BE careful with the weight of the bag. Some are really heavy before you even start putting boards into them.

Buying online may be difficult as a lot wont send due to size.

Not sure what the online price is but Longboards Scarborough can usually match it. Give the locals a try at least. Carry a reasonable range of travel covers and can get most others in.

I have a Squid triple travel bag with wheels in mint condition, only used once to Indo. Missus reckons it's taking up to much room in the spare room. Happy to sell it if you're interested might save you a few bucks. PM me if interested.

Hi, I was just searching through these forums trying to find out what guys want in board covers, anyway I make an alternative to coffins and other travel covers, basically it is a light weight canvas cover with no padding, you use your normal padded covers that you use at home. Just slip the boards in there covers into the sock/cover roll the end up like a wet bag, tighten 2 straps to pull all the boards together and then adjust the carry strap to balance the weight of the boards, takes 10min. tops to pack your boards from the time you start removing your fins.
The advantages to them are storage at home and on holidays, just fold it up and chuck it in a corner, you have individual covers for all your boards when you get there. Price, $120 + $12 postage and weight, well a coffin weighs around 7kg and if you break one of those wheels its unrepairable , how far do you actually carry your boards anyway.
As yet i do not have a good description of them on my website but I am working on it, I've sold a few of these and everyone so far is happy with them, sorry for the sales pitch but I am just trying let you know there is an Australian made alternative.
If your interested have a look at www.crustt.com.au and I have a few selling on ebay

Katana is a japanese sword..very sharp and "mystical" qualities in the hands of the expert..as are Katana Surfboards
The motor bike, also named after said sword, is ridden by temporary citizens

You do know squid are made in Asia, most of the online sellers are using the line Australian owned company, misleading people to think it is Australian made, one of my favorites is a Creatures of Leisure ad, "Don't by a cheap Chinese made cover"they didn't add "buy one of our expensive Chinese covers"
