I bought this about a month ago for a trip from the east coast out west to Colorado, needed a bag to travel with. Very sturdy bag, the S-like zipper in a different color is a nice feature how it snakes around, and a neat visual design. The wheels helped for sure getting around, I wasn't sure I needed them, but when I had a carry-on bag and a backpack to take to/from the airport plus my board, having something that rolled was helpful. The handles all feel high quality and are in the right places. It has nice removable boot bags inside to hold your snowboard boots, and an interior zipper in the front flap as well to hold a few smaller items or soft goods. I was also able to fit a second pair of heavy duty snow boots in there between my bindings that would have been impossible to fit in my carry-on, or to wear on the plane, so that was great to be able to do that. If you don't need to do that you could definitely fit your jacket/snow pants/etc. in between your bindings and have all your gear self-contained in one bag. I wish they had a hard shell version, because I'd love to fit my helmet/goggles/etc. in here but I worry about it getting tossed around when being loaded/unloaded from a plane. I also ski from time-to-time so it would be nice if Thule made a combo-bag that could be versatile enough to work with either a snowboard or skis. This bag is snowboard-specific and does a good job of that, but my skis definitely are too long, and the longer Thule ski bags are apparently too narrow for snowboards. Just an idea for future product :)
