Dakine ski and snowboard backpacks: your companion on and off the slopes
In the ski and snowboard backpacks section, we have backpacks for you, which have been specially made for the needs of snow sports athletes. Stash all the equipment and tools in there which you need for getting from huts into the snow-covered mountains. The backpacks are weatherproof and have easily accessible compartments both outside and inside. Strap on your backpack and enjoy your powder day!
Know moreAs with all Dakine backpacks it depends on your height, the size of the backpack and the fit. An ideal backpack for biking is just not an ideal backpack for skiing or snowboarding. Especially for use in the snow, we at Dakine have developed backpacks in collaboration with professional skiers and snowboarders that are not to be surpassed in functionality, features and durability.
Is it possible to ski with a backpack?
Yes, certainly. Your ski and snowboard backpacks by Dakine are your faithful companions on and off the slopes. They have an ergonomic design to fit snug to your back, comfortably and well-balanced. The padded shoulder straps, the chest strap and the hip belt provide optimal weight distribution and stability. So you do not even feel that you are wearing a backpack while you are making your powder turns through the deep snow.
How many litres should a ski backpack or snowboard backpack have?
It depends on your plans for your snow day and how much weight you can carry on your back without feeling strained. In the ski and snowboard backpack category you can find backpacks from 12 to 32 litres. We also have a 40-litres backpack in our product range for very long tours when you need to take more with you. A ski and snowboard backpack should be tailored to your tour. If you are traveling in open terrain, you need more luggage, because you must have a shovel, probe and avalanche transceiver. An avalanche airbag is also recommended. You can attach your avalanche airbag to any Dakine Poacher R.A.S. avalanche backpack. If you are on the pistes, a smaller backpack is sufficient. Here you may only need a second pair of ski goggles or glasses, sunscreen, a snack and something to drink. For this purpose the MISSION PRO 18 litres BACKPACK is ideal.
If your tour lasts several days, you will of course need a backpack with more space. The POACHER 40 litres offers ample features and storage for longer tours. With its advanced design, this large-volume ski and snowboard is our favourite backcountry ski and snowboard backpack for one-day tours and excursions off the pistes. The backpack has an innovative backpanel design which increases its flexibility and optimises the fit and offers sufficient volume for longer adventures, while still offering top comfort from early in the morning to late in the evening.
There are several carrying options for skis and helmets that make it efficient and easy to transport them during the ascent, and splitboard pole attachment loops secure stability when the time has come for the downhill.
With the TEAM MISSION PRO 32 LITRES, Dakine also offers a backpack for your film and photo equipment. It was developed with direct input from pro-rider Louis Felix-Paradis. This backpack has the space and compartments to organize your touring or film kit and more.
What advantages does a ski rucksack/snowboard rucksack offer?
Dakine ski and snowboard backpacks have been made specifically for winter sports. They have all the features you need for skiing and snowboarding. An extra strap for your skis or board. A helmet carry option, attachment loops for splitboard poles and glove-friendly cam-lock buckles. A special storage space for quick access for your avalanche equipment and access to the main compartment via the back panel are other features of a ski and snowboard backpack. Of course, all backpacks also have the emergency whistle on the chest strap. Even more compartments, which are specially made for your ski goggles, cell phone or other sensitive items, you will also find in the backpacks for snow sports. So you can keep everything safe and protected. In addition, Dakine backpacks are extra robust against snow, moisture and abrasion. They are made of extra water repellent materials or have a waterproof coating. This will protect your personal items and equipment from snow, moisture and cold.
Invest in a quality ski and snowboard backpack and experience the benefits of comfort, organization and functionality during your excursions in the snow. A well-equipped ski backpack is an indispensable companion that will help you transport your equipment safely and comfortably and at the same time enjoy your day in the snow.
Kids ski and snowboard rucksack
We have ski and snowboard backpacks that make it easier to carry your equipment while skiing or snowboarding also for our freeride skiers and snowboarders of tomorrow. The YOUTH HELI PRO 18 LITERS offers space for all you need for a day of powder skiing or snowboarding. Thanks to the emergency compartment, shovel and probe are ready at hand. The design, weight and size are adapted to the needs of teenage riders. In addition, it has adjustable straps in the chest and hip area and padded areas in the back and shoulder area. Optimal wearing comfort is thus guaranteed. And if you're not out in the deep snow, the backpack has an internal laptop pocket that fits most 15-inch laptops.
