Glad to know I'm not the only one rolling the dice by checking everything. Figured I'd just buy new boots and hit the credit card's delayed/lost baggage policy if needed. But yes, also usually fly direct too.

I hope you're about to roll the dice on a trip to Japan or BC right now....

I've got three coming up, Baldface Jan 4th, Baldface Feb 2nd and then Stellar Heli Feb 22nd... With maybe a quick weekend trip to Brundage with the old homies as well... The basically no cost flying benefit from the wife's job is glorious.

And your USD compared to our Canadian peso now that’s how to travel

Me and the homies did Eagle Pass last week for a steal.

Im also going to JP this season for the first time ever.
Thinking board, binding and riding gear in the board bag, regular clothes in hard suitcase, boots and helmet in the carry on and travel essentials in a small backpack.
Probably overthinking it as usual.

It's 60L, I like being able to take my helmet+boots with me since it's a bit more difficult to find boots versus demoing boards/bindings if shit goes missing.

Anyone have a 40Lish bag they like that consistently fits overhead bins? broad, i know. FWIW, i'm usually on delta flights.
