Editorial Review: Amazon.com Product Description: Blow molded from high density polyethylene, this lightweight and durable travel ski case from SporTube will safely transport two snowboards (with bindings and boots) or three pairs of skis. The case is designed to protect your valuable winter sports equipment from bumps and scratches while going through airline check-ins or shipping. A hard plastic shell offers superior protection over a soft bag and creates a shield around the equipment, protecting its contents much better than a nylon bag. The hard shell plastic doesn't tear and is resilient to dings and bangs. There are no buckles, zips or permanently attached straps to get ripped, torn, or broken. All Sportube cases are fitted with heavy duty rubber wheels for an easy journey from the car to check-in or from the car to the hotel or cabin. Sportube's designs and size meet recent changes in ski design and the Sportube now fits all ski/binding systems. The easy pull-attachment point and the easy pull handle make toting your equipment around a breeze. Sportube case are supplied with a non-locking, TSA-compliant wire case pin, and they can be locked for overseas travel or when shipping to the resort. Sportubes can easily be strapped to any roof rack, protecting your equipment from road salt, dirt, and grime. Specifications:
Manufacturer's Warranty Five-year limited warranty About Sportube Situated high in the Rocky Mountain ski town of Vail, Colorado, Highland Trading Co. Inc. has been a distributor of ski travel cases since 1991. After working for four months with technical engineers and design consultants, the Sportube brand was conceived, manufactured, and launched in 1996 with the introduction of both a single and double ski case with wheels. Based on the proven success of the single and double cases, the Sportube line expanded in 1998 with the launch of the much requested snowboard case and again in 2001 with the introduction of the Master Series fly rod cases. Sportube continues to be an innovator and leader in providing convenient travel options for sports enthusiasts. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Works great for speargunsUsed the SporTube 3 for my recent trip to Baja and nothing got damaged. Takes a bit of tinkering to get all the gear in, but I can load my spearguns, wetsuit, carbon fins, and the rest of my gear, minus the weight belt, in with room to spare. Keeping it under the 50lb weight limit can be stretch, but what does it cost you if the airlines damage your gear??? Could be a trip ender in some instances. A must have for blue water speargun protection. Rating: - Great protection!This case is great - nothing else can compare with the protection that it affords your expensive ski equipment during travel. The optional pull handle that atttaches to the nose of the case should make a significant difference, as pulling the case by the handle that comes standard isn't comfortable. I agree with other reviewers that for the price of this case, the pull handle should be a standard feature. Recommend for airline travel and shipping. Note that new check in costs ... Read More Rating: - Great Snowboard Travel CaseThe Sport-Tube is an excellent travel case and has worked well for me. I recently bought a second one after an airline dropped mine off of a plane and crushed in a corner and bent the wheels. My gear came through unscathed. Prior to that extreme abuse the case had held up with no damage after at least a dozen trips. Airlines are now enforcing the 50-pound weight restriction on snowboard cases. My old DaKine was so big that with 2 boards and all my gear in it would sometimes tip the scales ... Read More Rating: - Best Travel CaseThis case is bomber, nothing else can compare with the protection that it affords your expensive snowsports equipment during travel. Yes, it is heavy-I took it to Colorado with two complete setups(2 snowboards with bindings and 2 pairs of boots) and it weighed in right at 50 pounds, but then again I never worried for a second that my boards would be damaged in transit. I did not have the optional pull handle that atttaches to the nose of the case, but it would have made things MUCH easier. Pulling ... Read More Rating:  - HEAVVVVYYYY!I guess I should have expected it, but this case is heavy (and I'm no weak fluffy bunny). Empty - it's heavy. Filled - it's ridiculously heavy. It's more suited for taking on car trips but I wouldn't recommend flying with it. It's easier to rent your snowboard/skis on the slopes than try and drag this behemoth around unless you're really hardcore attached to your gear. So we're using it to store our gear but we won't be flying anywhere with it. There's some kind of service that will ... Read More |
