Wanted: Bag/backpack for 19m Speed 3

Memopad - 5-1-2017 at 05:21 AM

I picked up my used speed 3 last year and it didn't come with a backpack. I doubt any of you has an actual 19m speed 3 bag lying around, but I figured it was worth a shot.

If that fails, any suggestions for an alternative? It's a fairly large kite so a normal backpack is out, maybe I could find a duffel bag that fits.

Any old LEI bag should work. I bet you have a friend with one. I'd say you buy one of my old ones off me, but the shipping would be more than it's worth in the first place more than likely.

Nobody in my area really plays with kites, so the used gear scene is non existent

I've been keeping my eyes open on ebay and the like, but don't really see bag only options on there either.

I don't mind paying for something that makes moving that beast of a kite easier. I haven't even flown the thing yet because it would be a pain in the ass to move it as is. Doesn't need to be pretty, just functional :D

check out the goodwill stores in your area- or head to dicks and get a soccer backpack or similar would hold it fine

Or go to EMS and look for bags to hold tents or sleeping bags and the like. Marine stores may also have suitable storage bags. As a last resort, anyone with sewing skills could probably make you a pull string bag relatively cheaply. Hockey gear bags are expensive but should be big enough.

if you have play it again sports or other used sporting goods store, you can find huge used baseball bags very cheap
