Whether I’m camping, snowboarding, shooting, hiking, skateboarding, going to school or just going to spend the night with “her,” this pack does it all. I’ve even used it for a cross-state motorcycle ride and I never needed to readjust once. Its super technical, has a pocket for everything. It’s really comfortable even if carrying a snowboard; the straps hold the board tight so there’s not any leeway for it to swing around. All the straps are easily adjustable and in some cases stow able. I love this pack, I actually have last years model and I’ve used it for everything imaginable, even took it with me to Iraq. Just put it through the wash on ‘permanent press’ when I got back and it held together perfectly. Awesome!! They need 6 stars.
