Bag

Postby Olive » Sun Feb 04, 2007 9:20 pm

Hi,

I am thinking about developing a bag for outdoor sports. To get more insight in all different sports and how people undertaking these sports handle their bags, I would like to know your opinion on your bag, if you use one.

What kind of bag do you currently use? Why did you by it?

What are the best things about it? What are the best qualities? Why do you love your bag?

What bugs you about it? If you could change something about it, what would it be?

If you go surfing, what kind of stuff do you take? What things are not to be forgotten and what things are just nice to have with you?

Do you ever regret not taking a bag because you thought it was too much off a hassle? Can you describe the situation?

Thanks guys!
Olive

I take a big plastic tub...it's sweet for just tossing your wet things into after a session.

Amen braddah, I've got a pile of fins and wetsuit, gloves, booties, leashes, wax, and of course, a roll of duct tape in mine.

yep plastic boxes are king.

£1 in tesco, doesnt leak, easy to carry everything, and you can even stand in it to get changed. and its simple to rinse out so it doesnt stink like a bag would.

I never thought of using a plastic tub of some sort. Great idae. What sold me was the being able to stand in it to change. Great way of cutting down on the amount of sand I am bringing in to the ride. I also use a pump-up sprayer, like the ones used for gardening/pesticides, and fill it with clean water for rinsing off. Works great to get it full of hot water, wrap it in one of my old wetsuits, and set it on top of where my transmision is in my Van. Stays warm for the whole morning usualy.
