BODYBOARD BAGS

Board bags are used to protect your board from other people and the elements and can be especially useful when travelling. There are a number of different types of cover coming at different cost and catering for different needs.

STRETCH/BOARD SOCKS These are the cheapest form of bags and are usually made out of a stretchy breathable towel-like material. They don't have any handles but are good for protecting boards against scratches. They don't have any pockets so all gear has to be stored in a separate bag. I don't recommend putting your other gear in the same bag as it may indent your board.

BOARDBAG BACK PACK Back pack bags are a good all purpose bag. The straps make the bag easy to carry making it a good bag for transporting all your gear if you are walking or riding. Most of these bags have at least one front pocket where you can store all your accessories. When you are buying these bags it is important to make sure that the bag can easily fit your bag as not all bags on the market are big enough to fit all boards. It is also possible to find back pack board covers that accommodate two boards if you desire to carry two boards. The bags that have more than one external pocket may have a pocket bottom made out of mesh that allows the sand and moisture to escape.

TRAVEL BAG These bags are for those people that want to do some serious travelling with their boards. They are well padded and can hold a number of boards. Their silver reflective nylon surface gives some protection against the heat while the strong padded inner layer protects against sharp objects and excessive weight. Travel bags may carry from 2-5 bodyboards.
