Anyone use any non kiting bags to carry the kite/lines/pump/harness etc? Just picked up a new switchblade and the bag is terrible. Atleast with my old Nemesis Hp bag you could strap just about everything to it. ....Nearly lost my harness yesterday as i was walking towards the beach. Luckly a stranger picked it up and checked the beach to see if it belonged to anyone.
A got a canrinha coffin bag for all my clobber. Works a treat! Board on the bottom, harness around the kite keeping it in place, everything in one place.
I use a cheapish "hybrid" travel backpack. the hybrids are fatter than dedicated hiking packs and have zippers that open up the whole back of the pack rather than just at the top. this easy access is important.
i fit two kites, one bar, pump, harness, and wetsuit in there easily.
