The Best Dakine Snowboard Bags for Travel, Air Travel & Everyday Use

If you’re serious about snowboarding, protecting your board is non-negotiable. Whether you’re road-tripping to Blue Mountain, flying across the country to Whistler or Banff, or heading overseas for a once-in-a-lifetime powder trip, a reliable snowboard travel bag is the only way to ensure your gear arrives safely.

At Switch Skate & Snow, we stock the best snowboard bags in Canada, including Dakine snowboard bags — trusted worldwide by riders for their durability, travel-ready features, and smart design.

Why You Need a Snowboard Bag

A snowboard bag does more than just carry your gear:

  • Airline Protection: Airlines aren’t gentle with luggage. A padded snowboard bag or snowboard case with wheels prevents dings, cracks, and broken bindings.

  • Travel Convenience: A snowboard roller bag makes hauling gear through airports, hotels, and shuttle buses way easier.

  • Organization: Many snowboard gear bags include compartments for boots, outerwear, and tools.

  • Everyday Use: Even a simple snowboard carry bag or snowboard cover keeps your board clean and safe between sessions.

Types of Snowboard Bags

Dakine offers a full range of snowboard travel bags to match every rider’s needs:

1. Snowboard Sleeves

  • Lightweight and affordable.

  • Perfect for local trips around Durham Region or day missions to Lakeridge, Dagmar, or Brimacombe.

  • Protects your car and keeps your gear clean.

2. Padded Snowboard Bags

  • Extra protection for boards, ideal for road trips or bus/train travel.

  • Best if you’re storing gear with other equipment and want to avoid scratches.

3. Snowboard Roller Bags (With Wheels)

  • The ultimate choice for snowboard travel bags for air travel.

  • Easy to pull through airports thanks to smooth-rolling wheels.

  • Space for multiple boards, boots, and gear.

4. Snowboard Gear Bags / Equipment Bags

  • Designed for riders who want everything in one place.

  • Great for extended trips where you need boots, helmet, and outerwear stored together.

Dakine Snowboard Bags: The Gold Standard

Dakine has been making snowboard equipment bags since 1979, and they’ve earned a reputation for durability and function.

Top models include:

  • Dakine Tour Snowboard Bag – Lightweight, padded, with extra pockets for tools and gear.

  • Dakine Low Roller Snowboard Bag – A snowboard case with wheels, perfect for flights and road trips.

  • Dakine High Roller Snowboard Bag – Maximum storage and protection; fits multiple boards, boots, and clothing.

How to Choose the Best Snowboard Bag

When buying a snowboard travel bag or snowboard case, consider:

  • Length: Choose a bag equal to or slightly longer than your snowboard.

  • Padding: More padding = more protection (essential for air travel).

  • Wheels vs. Carry: A snowboard roller bag is best for airports, while a simple carry bag works for local use.

  • Storage Needs: Decide whether you need space for just a board or a full setup (boots, outerwear, helmet).

  • Budget: Look for a snowboard bag sale to score deals on high-quality Dakine gear.
