Hi There

Anyone out there know if the Dakine Tour 157cm Snowboard Bag would take a 156cm board? and if not any recommendations for a decent bag for a 156cm board

Thanks

I’m sure a 156 board would fit in a 157 bag.. but.

Don’t get a board bag without wheels!!! It’s absolute torture carrying your boots, bindings, boards, protection (back protector and slam shorts) as well as your outerwear etc etc all on one shoulder strap. It’s like a human cheese wire. Please buy a wheelie bag and if you can, get a sligtly longer bag… why? More space for your stuff and room to fit in a powder gun should you decide you want a 165 for the deep days. If you can’t find a Dakine bag for the right money, a lot of shops make their own bags which cost a bit less. But yeah go for a longer bag and make sure it’s got wheels. You don’t want to carry your 32kg BA baggage allowance on your shoulder, trust me!
