amazing pack but long skis diagonal problem

By: jbarker62215018(1)

I absolutly love this pack with all my heart. You can proably read from the other reviews how awesome it is and how many pockets it has. But if anyone was to say anything about it it would have to be either the hydration sleeve or the diagonal ski carrier. The hydration sleeve makes it hard for the insertion of camel back water bags, but once you got it in no big deal. The thing that upset me would have to be the diagonal ski carrier. When Hiking crags at jackson the path hikes clockwise around the mountain making your skis face over your left shoulder right where trees are. Not going to be a porblem this year because i pry won't ski jackson again. Love the pack nothing better just a small concern.

Perfect Ski Pack

By: CarlosC(4)

This pack is a great pack for skiing. It fits everything you need, water, food, extra layers, goggles, and more. Despite the fact that it carries a ton, it really has a low profile and hugs your back. Unless you stuff it full of heavy stuff it really follows your body and doesn't throw your balance off when you are carving turns. It has several useful pockets for things like an extra water bottle, your phone, or your camera. Very thoughtful design and excellent construction.

I LOVE to ski, but I make my living as a fashion model in LA. Sounds lame when I say that...and well it is. But I will say I have had more Queens and Divas beg me to tell them where I got my Heli Pro Scotch Plaid pack! I just laugh and then cry a bit, because as we speak several "stylist" are running around Hollywood with a Heli Pro filled with makeup, blow dryers, curlers, etc. I am sure the ski carry loop holds a blow dryer perfectly. HAHAH anyways for me the thing rocks...it looks sweet, functions great, and fits amazing! Not a pack for overnight, but for Cat-skiing, or any lift served operation you will be set.

Work and play in one!

i use this backpack for school/skiing. I have done a lot of hiking with the skis on the back and it works awesome. They are easy to put in even with gloves on! I use it everyday of the week between school and skiing on on the weekends and it doesn't have a single tear or blemish. they only problem i have found is that it is hard to get a camel pack hose through the shoulder strap and it also freezes out on the hill. Overall it is very comfortable and the right size for holding a days worth of books or ski gear. Not to mention it looks saweeet!
