Does this bag have any weaknesses when used for skis, compared to a bag originally designed for skis, like Dakine Fall Line?

Depending on how it fits, the boot compartments might damage the front part of your skis. Other than that, if recommend tossing in a lot of clothes to keep the skis and poles from moving around inside the bag.

I'm using a bag by Rokinon Digital. The camera fits nicely in it. Although there isn't room for much else. That's okay though - I wanted a secure fit so there wasn't a lot of room for jostling! I love this camera and don't want it to get damaged on my trips>

In light rain the bag kept camera and accessories dry. Have not used it in snow. Love the bag, keeps things handy and carries well as back pack.

In fact, I returned the belt pack because it could not accommodate my camera, Nikon D700 with grip. However, I do believe it would be quite comfortable for skiing. I'm not sure about biking because you're in a sitting position and I don't bike enough to answer. It's a great bag if your camera fits

I use it for commuting every week day and that means dragging it down the stairs a lot, but also picking it up and carrying it a lot by the handle. I am a pretty rough user of this bag and there are no signs of any weakness in the top handle.

No, it's too heavy and too bulky. Spend a little more and get a higher quality bag.

I have not had trouble with this bag doing that. My old one fell forward many times so I'm glad I don't have the problem anymore.

I'll ask my brother to measure his bag tomorrow and get back to you. I own a Dakine bag, bought this for my little brother.

It would work excellent. There is a stabilizer strap for holding the bag tight that most people tuck into the opposite strap slot. With this strap snapped into the single strap the pack is very stable. I use my pack for every hike I have been on, it is my Man Purse.

I am not familiar with the backpack you mention, but the bag itself is not heavily padded. A DSLR will fit inside comfortably and does not shift within the bag, and it serves well to protect it from dirt, dust, or water. I would not be comfortable doing a drop test with this bag, though.

I think this bag will work fine for your needs. I took a quick look at my bag and try to make space for the items you listed and It seems to work. This bag is the same size as a large backpack and is well padded. It offers a lot protection for this expensive equipment.

Yes, I transport my skis and snowboards on it, I do use bags for extra security when fastening them to the rack.

I don't know for sure, but I would say no. The box is very narrow. You might be able to have both golf bags top to bottom, but it would be tight I think. I honestly wasn't happy with this model for traveling, but my husband wanted it for his skis.

I own the bag. I took it with me while hiking in Yosemite. It performed well, both as a back pack and as a sling. The important thing to remember in using the bag as a sling is the way you pack it. If heavy things are at the bottom side of the bag, away from you, it should carry fine. I found that I used the top compartment for sack lunch and water bottle, with cameras, lenses on the bottom.

I would not recommend it: the skis are too narrow and will slide left and right under the belt.
