Lot of good work and material goes into a well made bag.
A good bag will make your travel life easier.
I just travelled to Portugal with 2 SUPs, really heavy carry on and a big checked bag.
Lots of distance to cover carrying them all.
I simply put the 9'0 on top of the 9'4.... grabbed the nose handle of the bottom board and dragged them both from the street through the airport.... even down stairs.
No problem. The bottom on the tail, has a big thick high tech material, that slid easily over everything.
Neither the bags or boards, showed even a scratch.
Good bags are worth the price, IMO
