how does this pack carry diagonal? your chart says so, but it doesn't appear to the case.

also your chart says there's no axe loop, but it has one.

it could be that your chart is for a different pack.

I find that the best way to carry skis with the Alias is A-frame style...not sure how you could rig them diagonally.

Ummm...I don't know what that last answer was about, but, most of the ski packs use the ice axe loop to put the tails through and than the top part clips in to the straps on the upper part of the pack. It definitely does the diagonal ski carry.
