Designed with utilitarian simplicity this is a bag with many hidden features; everything you need and nothing you don’t. Externally it is very simple – hardwearing 600D nylon and webbing over 10mm high density padding with reinforced sidewalls and additional nose and tail protection. There are 2 grab handles at the nose and tail plus 2 padded carry handles on the top and slightly forward for dragging the bag. The shoulder strap is buckle free and removable plus there are 4 utility loops for maximum securing. Inside are securing straps and inlays for keeping your boards separate, plus 7 internal pockets for surf essentials like wax. The zippers are heavy duty, corrosion free plastic moulded zips and zip pulls.
This is understated design; pure function and practicality when you need it most. Designed to accommodate 3-4 boards in sizes up to 8’0 or 2 boards for 8’0 plus. The bags are cut long to allow for extra padding or boards packed inside day bags.

About the size and shape
Most board bags are available in a range of shapes to suit the surfboard type: Fish, Shortboard, Longboard etc. The difference is mostly in the nose shape and width. If in doubt buy a board bag with a wider nose shape - a shortboard will still fit in a Fish bag and when carrying 2 surfboards more space helps.
A ROAM surfboard bag is designed to fit the surfboard it’s labelled for: a 6’8 bag will fit a 6’8 board. If the bag itself is 6’8” in length then it’s really a 6’6 bag. Not all brands do this so make sure you check.
Width is also key, especially when packing 2 or more surfboards.
Note also the tail shape or if there is a tail box or expanding fin area to allow a surfboard to be put in with fins. (Always remove fins before travelling by air)
