Sportube Series 1 Ski and Snowboard Case

Great product for the cost. Has plenty of space, the handles makr it easy to carry. Tough matrtial so it protects your skis. Even has wheels making it wasy for transport!

Very glad I decided to buy this case. Took it on a trip to Aspen recently and my skis were well taken care of because of the case. Was a bit difficult at first because my poles have hand guards on them for racing, but they fit no issue after a bit of shuffling. I’m glad that it came with a sticker instructing the TSA how to lock and unlock the case since I have seen them just left open from an inspection. I put the hard case inside my soft case to avoid the issue of the TSA leaving my hard case open, at least my stuff would all be together if it did happen, but they were able to properly lock it up both ways. My skis fit great, no movement when I was shaking the case. Was very happy to use the wheels on the case, it made life a lot easier when going through the airport. Highly recommend.

Product works exactly as advertised and is super durable! Also fantastic customer service. Highly recommend

Holes don't line up. Can't put the skis in stacked. Need to rubber band down the bindings, therefore can't use it for storage in the off season. Wish I had bought a soft padded wheeled case instead. Updated: I used this case for travel on 5 ski trips now. Skis are well protected, and the bright orange case makes it so easy to find at the airport. It's easy to maneuver at the airport and from the car to the lodge. I wasn't initially happy with the purchase because I couldn't use it for storage and have to bind the breaks for the skis to fit, but after using it a few times I realize that I really like the case. The cons are that you can't put anything else in the tube like you do with the padded cases, but I think it's ok.

I bought this to replace an old soft case I was using. The soft case just did not provide adequate protection when flying with skis. This product is excellent! I ride pretty long skis: 190's. This case was plenty long enough, and could handle skis much longer. The design shrinks to fit your ski, which is awesome. It's roomy enough to fit your skis and your poles, even if you have fat skis or big bindings. Inside the tube, the ends are padded, giving a little extra protection. The "shoebox" fit of your skis inside the tube keeps them from banging around. Also, the wheels on the case are very handy when you are walking a long distance through the airport. It wheels effortlessly. I was looking for a hard case for my skis, and this was the best one I could find on Amazon. Very happy.

Works great but I have a couple of things to mention. The holes ( two ) on the half that the smaller half slides into were not spaced the same distance as the numerous holes on smaller half for length varience. I wanted to double secure the tube with a TSA lock in through one set of holes and the wire type device supplied with this product through what I thought would have been 2nd set of holes from both halves aligned. Since one set of holes aligned therefore other set of holes should be aligned. As I said holes, (two ) on 'larger half' were not drilled with same spacing as holes on smaller half. The case still worked though. I will probably drill second set of holes myself. Also when inserting a lock or the supplied wire closure device, (which is nice by the way) make sure you press down on top of outer half to get both inner and outer holes completely aligned. To me making sure both sets are aligned is most important. I tilted the case to 'look through holes' to insure alignment. In all this is a good product. Skis arrived intact and its great peace of mind knowing skis are safe'. They should make this with a clear plastic then TSA could see insides and not have to open case.

So, I finally got tired of paying equipment rental fees on every skiing trip I went having a pair of my own skis gathering dust in storage. You'll save approximately $100 a week in fees by bringing your own stuff. They only other choice is whether you want a soft case or a hard case (this product). IMHO, the only reason to go for soft case is to save on weight, because that's the only thing airlines will limit (and charge for excess) in ski equipment. Sportube has several key advantages. Unlike what some people wrote, I was able to fit my ski pants, hat, and goggles in the case, besides skis & poles. The case is telescoping, so you can leave as much free space as you like at either end for you stuff. ;) Also, I was able to fit a couple of wine bottles between the skis themselves. This case has wheels and detachable pulling handle for easy transporting around. It can also be mounted on top of your car provided that you have cross bars and straps to secure it. There are several things you have to be aware of when you buy this case. First, as it was mentioned before, it will not fit through the trunk access hole in sedans. You need split folding seats. Also, purchase one of these locks for travel: Master Lock 4688DRED TSA Accepted Cable Luggage Lock, Red . So far I made two trips with the case and both times TSA opened a case on the way there AND back and left me a note inside. It's a TSA magnet for sure.

Got charged a restocking fee of almost 50 %. Paid almost $170 and got back $90. Yes I used the item and made it work for a trip since I ordered it last minute but you can see in the photos that the holes did not align. Therefore, I had to use a drill to open up the space more. Even then it was still difficult to get the pin in. Took 2 persons to do. I would have kept the item had it been made correctly. Heck I would have kept it had I known about a 50% restocking fee. Ridiculous that a company would make something defective then throw the blame on the customer. I planned on purchasing another one to see if they would make it right later but not anymore.

LOVE this - really love it. Best way of transporting skis ever. Robust, adapts to the length of the ski, light and easy to handle even with the skis inside. Comes with nice solid clip-on handle that you can quickly remove at check in. Love my skis and was not one bit worried about them inside this case. Noticed envious looks from skiers with larger cumbersome bags as we traveled through the airport. Did not buy the lock that is sold with the case because it did not get good reviews. Instead bought a long hasp combination padlock from the local hardware store and this works perfectly. If you travel with skis buy this - it will make your life easier. Would definitely buy again.

Easy to use and holds 2 pair of skis and poles as advertised.

Es más estrecho de lo que pensaba.

Alles super, super stabil, gute Qualität, genau wie ich es mir vorgestellt hatte, musste leider zurück weil für mein gebrauch war Series 1 zu schmal ,habe zurück geschickt aber gleich Sportube Series 2 bestellt, Ich habe es für Spearfishing geholt, auf jeden fall eine kauf Empfehlung.
