Good pack

This is a good all around pack, big enough for the things you need but not too bulky that its throwing you around while you ride. It has a good snug hug fit to your back.
Ok on this and other packs, hydration compatible means it can
Ok on this and other packs, hydration compatible means it can fit a cammelbak/hydration pack not a watter bottle compartment correct??

Compatible means you can use a water bladder with it. Has a hole on the top of the pack for the hose to come out.

Pretty tight.

I bought this to use as my backpack for school and it works well for that. Plenty of room for all my books, folders, and even a laptop or a jacket. It is pretty comfortable and I don't mind wearing it, plus it looks sick. I've brought it skiing a few times and it holds everything I need. The only thing I don't like is that a ton of loose straps are always hanging off the pack and dangling everywhere. Overall it is super durable and great quality.

I was wondering if this backpack has the horizontal snowboard
I was wondering if this backpack has the horizontal snowboard carrying system, I seen it has the vertical one, and if it doesn't, whats the differences between the bag that has this feature vs the one that doesn't

This bag does not have horizontal carry. I believe you're talking about the differences between this and the DLX, if so, the differences are not great. There's the horizontal carry the water pouch is a bit different and the hose feeds into the arm strap which is insulated so that the water doesn't freeze, there's a pocket on the waist strap, the ski carry uses a strong cable at the bottom rather than a clip, there's a fleece lined sunglass pocket on the side in addition to the goggle pocket, other than that I believe they're the same. I actually accidentally posted the video of the dlx so you can check that out as well.

Strapped!

Pretty big bag, there are a lot of straps that hang around when you're not using it for skiing/snowboarding but so great for skiing/snowboarding! I really wish there were a horizontal carry but I got this for $40 and I wasn't gonna pay $60 more the DLX for just that feature! The organizer pocket is pretty cool and you can put your laptop in the pouch pocket. The fleece lined pocket is really cool. the only other thing missing is a side water bottle pocket but I'm still stoked on the pack! Love dakine!

Good minimal bag for the backcountry.

I splitboard, so I didn't mind not having horizontal board carry (which is my preferred way to strap my board on if I'm hiking or on a sled). My bigger K2 bag has that option, but it's also a bit heavier and not as fun to ride with. Like the previous reviewer said, it fits everything you need ok, except my metal Voile shovel doesn't go in the pouch very well. Wish I could downsize to a smaller shovel that fit better, but those are worthless in avy debris or building kickers. Putting a helmet in there is also a stretch if you've got poles, skins, etc.

Lack of help from Dogfunk

Unfortunately, I spent some time and talked to one of the service advisors with Dogfunk to make sure this pack had the zip in sleeve on the shoulder strap for the drink tube off of a camelback bladder. After being assured by Skylar the advisor that it did have it I ordered it immediately. After I received it I discovered that it did not have the one feature that I wanted and requested and took the time to research, ask questions, and search for was not even on the bag. So unfortunately for Dakine Dogfunk has ruined this entire experience for me. Won't be returning, won't purchase another, thank you Skylar.
Change me.
