does anyone have a suggestion for replacement kite bags? My kites came in what are essentially trash bags with a cord on top. I'm talking about nice replacements, like backpacks with a place to put pump, maybe a small screwdriver, and some water. Ideas?
So far I've found...
- DaKine Compression bags : http://www.dakine.com/p/kite/kite-bags/ ... n-bagn-bag
- This Best bag: http://www.bestkiteboarding.com/Backpac ... k-Kite-bag
Any others? Cheap is good.

Replacement Kite Bags?
I've been thinking of trying the Switch ones. The price is so low that there is really no down side.

Re: Replacement Kite Bags?
Thanks for the help all. Royce, I may stop by your trailer next week and see what you have / how much it costs.
@col.kiteman: As I work for non-profit, I usually have to buy my gear used / old / not top of the line. So a lot of the kites I've gotten come in crappy or no bag. Examples include: F-One Volt, RRD Vision. We're talking one step up from a TJ's shopping bag here.
I hear it's a way for manufacturers to hit a lower price point. Frankly I'm glad they do it this way, I'd rather have my $$ go towards the kite than the bag. Although, man do I appreciate a well made bag, makes setup/takedown so much easier...

Re: Replacement Kite Bags?
But messenger bags we can't carry on both shoulders if we compare to backpacks. Am I correct?
While Kitesurfing I use backpacks for security reasons to carry essential helping gears. I also do traveling a lot so I buy backpacks using Zipit coupons.
