Hi there! I was able to buy a really nice wheeled bag for my kayak (wavesport made it) off ebay... but can't find another one for my wife...
anybody know where I can get a travel bag to fit her kayak for airplanes?
preferably in Canada or Pacific Northwest... preferably cheap! :pray:

Take the measurement of the boat length, depth width then find a surf board bad to fit it.

I was using a Animal 7 ft double coffin bag for my surf kayak. YOu could also wrap it up in bubble wrap two layers should be inuff

YOu could try a stretch cover the towelly surf board bags. A friend used to use one on his s6x i think it was a longboard one to cater for the width.


otherwise try the salamander rodeo wrap

well, I got that bag. It's alright. mine has a few small holes and one of the wheels is partly broken. The bag gets small holes easily but it won't tear. Funny enought, I would recomend the bag as it is pretty good at transporting the boats

Is it specific that you need wheels?

I personally wouldn't wrap my kayak, it seems to encourage baggage handlers to throw it harder!

I use a cockpit cover to travel with stuff inside my kayak, coz it's a plastic kayak it can cope with the airport. I'm sure it gets more damage actually on the river.

I have a nookie neoprene cover (which is way more secure than nylon ones around), I'm sure it was only about £20. Really useful and it's never popped in transit.
