DaKine
Heli Pro DLX ski or Snowboard backpack— With plenty of storage for your
tools, camera, and water for hydration, this backpack from DAKINE keeps you prepared while you pursue the freshest powder on earth
If
you are one of those skiers or snowboarders who would rather spend most
of your time off piste hitting big lines and cutting fresh tracks
through the deep stuff, then you definitely need a good bag that’ll not
only feel like you aren’t wearing anything when you are out on the
slopes, but will also easily carry all of you important gear for a day
in the backcountry.
Unlike the DaKine Pro II backpack
backpack, the Dakine Heli Pro DLX allows you to carry your skis
diagonally or snowboard both vertically and horizontal. (you can NOT
carry skis vertically like some shops are saying in there ads.) The
backpack also features a retractable ski carry, if you would rather toe
your planks or board up the mountain (and it won’t get tangled when you
aren’t carrying your skis).
**please note: the Standard Dakine heli pro will NOT carry your Snowboard horizontal.. hence the DLX model.**
The
Heli Pro DLX ski pack also features a fleece lined goggle pocket that
will help keep your goggles free of scratches and super clear for
seeing the best lines. It also has an insulated hydration sleeve that
will keep your water from freezing. There is also an additional water
bottle pocket for extra hydration.
There is also a waterproof,
fleece lined pocket for your camera that will protect your gear in case
of a fall, but keeps it accessible enough you can snag it to capture
your friend hucking a backflip off that cliff. The bag also features a
external snow and avy tool pocket, making it easy to reach your
important gear when you might need it most.
