The padded Burton Gig Bag holds two snowboards (with bindings removed), or one board with bindings and a few layers, gloves, hats, and goggles. Strap your skateboard to the bottom using the skate conversion straps and convert the Gig into a rolling carrier. The Gig Bag is fully padded, so you don't have to worry about handing your quiver over to baggage handlers. A tuning pocket holds your tools and wax, and two handles, a shoulder strap, and an end handle give you carrying options. The zipper pulls fit TSA-approved locks (not included). *Available for US shipment only. - Fall 2008.

Bottom Line: Pack your quiver in the padded Burton Gig Bag and start your endless winter.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Bag Rocks!

Good padding! Provides plenty of room for most sizes of boards. Can even fit some accessories. Would recommend stuffing some of those fleeces into it, especially when flying to provide extra support and protection. Even fits two pairs of skis if need be. Made of what seems to be highly durable material, as mine got dirty, but then came right clean after washing it. Highly Recommended.

The Gig bag is great. It is padded, has room for your board, boots, and bindings. You can even fit your outerwear in there. If you don't want to carry it on your shoulder, then upgrade to the the wheelie gig bag, http://www.backcountry.com/burton-wheelie-gig-bag

BURTON GIG BAG - DOES THE JOB

By:
April 27, 2009

I bought this board with intentions for taking it on a plane and travelling. It's got enough padding and wrapping a jacket around the edges is more than enough. Fit's all my gear: board with bindings, jacket, pants, gloves, goggles, boots, and a helmet.... that's a 156cm bag with a 151cm board though. I loved the bag so much I bought one for my boyfriend. However, the 166cm bag was a tight fit for his 161cm wide board with bindings. We simply removed the bindings when flying and we were able to throw in his board, bindings, boots (size10 mens), gloves, and an outfit. The zippers have grommets so we can throw a lock on it... Only reason I removed a star is because the outer accessory pocket wasn't lockable and there wasn't one inside the bag to make up for it. It also comes with skateboard straps... but useless for people like us who don't skateboard. Overall, we are pleased with the bag.

Perfect Travel Bag

By:
December 12, 2008

I used this bag last time I traveled to Colorado and I couldn't be more pleased with it. It is well padded and the exterior fabric can take a serious beating. It's got all the room you could want inside, I fit my board, 2 pairs of boots, helmet, goggles, 2 pairs of gloves, and a jacket in there without a problem. I'd buy it again in a heartbeat.

theres people that would disagree with me but i would grab the biggest size possible, that is if you are using it for air travel...a snowboard bag is a big thing already, so you might as go all out. and the great thing is you can fit a helmet, pair of boots, or any other large object in the front or back of the bag. and there will just be more room in general.

Really Great bag for the price

By:
November 10, 2008

I bought this bag for my boyfriend for his birthday. We are going to Denver in January and need a bag for our boards. This will easily fit both of our boards and his bindings, maybe even some the snow gear that we need to take too!

Great Bag!!!!!!

By:
March 26, 2009

I am so glad I purchased this bag. I do a lot of road trips up to Vermont and it was able to hold my board w/ bindings attached, boots, 2 pairs of snow pants, underlayers, socks, gloves, hats, fleece and jacket and still have room left over. I bought the electroclash and I love the color. The bag has enough padding so my gear doesn't get ruined.

I looked this up a while ago (flying delta from STL to SLC in a bit) - they aren't charging excess baggage fees for the gear yet, so as long as it's under 50lbs you just pay the checked bag fee.

Solid bag, but lookout if you're a sasquatch

By:
March 19, 2009

I have a Donek 170 with large Burton P1.1s on it and it just *barely* fits in the 176cm bag. The length is good, but the width of the bindings makes it a tight squeeze. No complaints about the bag at all. I just wanted to make sure that those of us that aren't munchkins knew what to expect. ;)

Yeah that board will fit just fine in the 156cm board bag. As far as cost you can go on any airline site and it will tell you how they handle those things.

By:

I bought the bigger size (166) for my 153 board and I am so glad I did. I fit in my board, bindings, boots, helmet, goggles, jacket, pants, gloves, layers, EVERYTHING! This bag is perfect hands down! Great for flying too because it is very protective. I got the red flannel and it looks great too!

Safe and Secure

By:
November 7, 2008

I just recently purchased this bag for myself after seeing it at a local shop. It is heavy duty and high quality, and is perfectly form fitted for my board. It fits my snowboard with bindings attached, my boots, plus has room for most of my gear (gloves, jacket, etc). I wish there also was an internal gear pocket (for security purposes), but the external pocket is huge! I love the Gig Bag and the price is great for a fully padded airline-friendly bag. I plan to purchase another for my husband's board.

I'll update this some more after I see how the bag stands up to baggage men, but as far as walking around the subways and jumping on buses in the bag is great. Should strap is comfortable, and the padding removes that awful clanking sound I used to make when I smashed my board into the wall. I can easily fit a board, bindings, and my boots in the bag.

Has anyone used this with 2 boards with bindings still attached?

Has anyone used this with 2 boards with bindings still attached? I have an adult board and than my son's board (130cm) and want to put both in bag without removing bindings.

I have a Burton Wheelie Locker which is just slightly bigger and could fit two boards with bindings in it if I wanted to. However I never would do this though because of the way you'd have to pack them to fit. It'd be risking damaging my board and/or bindings.Now in your case, with you son's smaller board (130cm) his bindings shouldn't fall onto the same place as yours do on the board. So its quite possible you could pack both in and still be ok. Worst case scenerio, you just take a screwdriver and 2 mins of your time to remove one set of bindings. It's not a big deal.

By:

I just headed down to British Columbia for the fluffy stuff, bought this bag before I came, and stacked two boards, bindings and all, boots, and (drumroll please) Every single one of my winter items. Thats, two pairs of gloves, snow pants, jacket, some fleece liners, three hats, and to top that all off a small shovel! The skate conversion straps made carrying that load a breeze as well. Great bag, and great deal!
