The dakine low roller is a nice looking wheeled snowboard bag. The low roller is the little brother of the high roller. That makes it a bit simpler, lighter and probably more useful. It’s available in three different lengths (157, 165, 175) and five different colors (black, black/olive camo, charcoal/red, brown/brown plaid, brown/fairway plaid).
Features:
– Exterior access boot pockets
– Full length two-way zipper
– High quality urethane wheels
– Fully padded board protection
– Dual end carry handles
Here’s a video clip with the world record cliff drop Jamie Pierre did in march. 255 feet (78m) gives you pretty long time to think when you’re falling. In the video Jamie talks about what went trough his head during the preparation, the jump and what he felt afterwards. That jump is just insane.
Update: The first video was pulled off Youtube by some reason, I’ve replaced it with two other clips. One with only the jump and one with an interview.
