i've seen some good deals on them and i was wondering which of these is a bigger bag and has more space, i am planning to fit 3 pairs of skis and 1 set of poles aswell as a pair of boots in the bag.
 
I have the Dakine one, they come in two sizes 185 and 200 although I ended up with the 185 by mistake but it still fit in 189 Hellbents (193/4ish).

The bag has straps for 2 pairs of skis to fit in, you can get a third pair in but it will have to sit on top of the other skis. Pockets on the outside will easily fit your boots as well. Poles are easy just stick them in there. Lots of padding, cant fault the bag.

I manage to stash all my outwear and general shit in there no problem. However I wouldn't put your boots in there as well as all your other stuff as it just gets too heavy to be honest if you have to lift the bag instead of just pulling it around, plus no airlines will take that much weight, your pushing it with just 3 pairs of skis.

Armada bag seems like pretty much the same design/dimensions to be honest though, haven't used it but thats my guess. Dakine's bags last though always had a good experience with them.
 
i have the armada anchorage bag and its pretty big, it fits my 174 volkl ledges and 179 k2 revivals also fits 3 pairs of poles, it also fits a shitload of clothes, i usually put a sweatshirt or two and all my outerwear and it all fits its a pretty big bag. Also the wheels on it it are pretty dope really heavy duty, hope this helped
 
check out the North Face Base Camp Roller, i use mine all the time on planes.... i usually take 1 pair of skis, boots and all my gear in the bag, though, its really easy to go over 50lbs with roller bags
 
Concourse double, no problem. Just put the skis in individually not locked together in pairs, then you can fit your boot in easier.
 
Guys, I have 2 pairs of ski: 175 and 176 cm

In far future may be I purchase a longer skis, but I think not longer than 185-190.

I thinking about purchase a Dakine Concourse double, but I have a little dilemma what lenght to buy, 185 or 200.

I read on NS that dakine sizes is huge and 190 cm skis fit into 185 bag without any problems.

What can you say?

Thanks in advance fot helpful replies.
 
Guys, I want to buy DaKine Councorse Double 185, but in stock of the shop leaves only the last one with a little defect.

Shop give me a special discount 10% for this.

I need your opinions it is a critical defect or all is OK and any bag without defect after first flight can get it?

Buy this one or no?

That's not a huge problem, my ski bag has got quite a few of those (not sure what the right word is), and I still use with no issues or concerns.
 
In conclusion I don't buy this Concourse and after reading forums I take a decision that it is to huge to me.

I ordered in foreign shop Dakine Fall Line Double.
 
i have armada, friend has the dakine bag.

i can say my anchorage bag fits a lot more in, my most recent pack was

191 caylors + 179 iron maidens + boots, helmet, skins, 2 pairs of outerwear, and jackets and clothes for a 5 day trip. and probably couldve fitted more if i wanted to.

if you are travelling by plane you will go over the weight limit long before you ever fill it. travelling by car is great because you can just pack one bag with everything and chuck it on the roof.
