DAKINE Heli Pro 20L Backpack - 1200cu in

Item #DAK2018 | 158 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Good minimal bag for the backcountry.

By Ranked #115 - Accessories March 15, 2013

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.
