Any suggestions for a surf travel bag, three kites ,6.2 board , harness pump lines inc. what's the lightest one out there as most are 4-5 kg, that's allot off your allowance on the plane .

Thanks for any suggestions in advance

Looks like a pretty good bag. Although 6mm padding is a bit on the thin side. Day use bags are normally 5mm and proper travel bags are 10mm. But that's easily solved with some extra bubble wrap.

Skip the wheels if you want to save on weight.
A lot of airports have nice smooth floors and the bag slides easily, carry it when you get to the course surfaces.
I have a triple coffin, it's been going strong for years, fits 3 kites, 2 boards, Harness, Bars, ++

I use a bag made by "Curve" to get around South America. Last trip to Peru, I fit 3 boards (6'4", 5'10", 5'7") and 2 kites (12m & 9m) I bought the daypack too. Heaps of padding, well built and versatile (sometimes I travel with just 1 board). No affiliation. Oh, and I'm a fan for no-wheels too. www.curvesurf.com.au/products/surfboard-bag-surfboard-coffin-double-triple-surfboard-bag-australia-overstayer

Does this have a divider for a second board?

I got one of these for a W.A. trip last year

2 board, 3 kites, harness, pump and heaps of other crap. Really good bag for the money

Got some pics loaded up somewhere. Good blokes to deal with too.

Filled it up on the way over (vehicle) Then lightened it up a touch for the plane home. Its amazing how much stuff you can fit in them when you dont want to leave anything behind.

Really solid bag though.. recommended.
