I lost my GSP just over a year ago, still absolutely destroyed. How old is yours?

I'm sorry, my Geoff was a rescue so we don't know exactly how old he is, we have had him for about 10 years and think he was about 3 when we got him. He's a sweetheart.

I got the Capita version last season and I like it a lot. I don't have anything to compare it to, but it fit's all my stuff easily. I've flown with it once and no issues. Rolls really well, just a little floppy but I think that's more due to me having shorter boards, so they don't fill it out when strapped in. I love the outter straps because I have to take mine up & down stairs every time I go out, makes it very easy to manhandle.

Packing cubes are my new jam.

packing cubes are underrated. I bought a bunch last time I was in SLC at Sierra for like 80% off

compression packing cubes are the shit

hard agree, i even use them for my small soft goods going to/from the hill.

Anyone have strong feelings on a small (~12-14L) sidecountry pack that holds avy gear and water + vertical board carry? My DK heli 20 is functionally fine & great size for a tour, but I don't need the extra room when we hike from the chair. Just thinking slim.

I'm looking at the oneball little wing 12, and Dakine poacher 14, maybe heli 12. Have looked at others & am most attracted to those.

I've got the Dakine Heli 12, it's great for on resort, but also works for little bit of hiking. I can fit my shovel, probe, and a couple bottles of gatorade in it. has sideways carry and vertical carry available on it. Little pocket for your goggles/extra lens. No helmet pocket thing though.
