I am doing a challenge where this will be wet, sandy, and have about 20+ pounds of gear inside. Can it handle all of that and are the straps comfy?

Your items inside to pack could possibly get what it takes a lot for them to get wet I would recommend a dry bag in the pack, the straps are fairly comfortable especially with 20 pounds of pack, which is light for a military pack if ya feel me

Yes. It carries 2 surfboards comfortably, 3 max. Any more than that and we used our own 1 inch strap

I'm not sure how rough the conditions are out there, but i'm very please with the bag, the quality and the sturdiness. It doesn't seem to be water proof, but is very sturdy and high quality. I would feel comfortable taking out there myself. The only other option would be a completely waterproof bag.

AW, there is no way you are going to break the rings or snap the strap. This gear is among the strongest I have seen. Hope this helps.

I've been using sandbags from ankle weights like stated by other, as well as two dive weights. Each of those is a four lb square about 3x3 inches.....It's a tight fit but works.The vest is sturdy enough to handle 50 lbs but I haven't gone above 40 with mine.

The strap is pretty strong. It should work out fine with constant movement.

Yes..The straps are very strong...it is well-sewn..I carry a lot of things to the office..like my personal hygiene equipments, my food, books, and my laptop...and it is still in one piece. This bag is amazingly good..

I think it should be alright. The straps are generous. Sorry this took so long.

We have used it to transport items for a snow ski trip and had no trouble with the straps provided. I felt it was very secure.

Yes, but if you fill it full it is quite heavy. Straps are not suited for alot of weight.

Yes, it seems to be very sturdy, but I mainly used the handle straps to carry it. I packed it to capacity when I sent my daughter to camp, and it worked better than I had hoped...

Doug, this bag would easily handle your equipment (and more). These bags have three layers in which you can custom break the foam to fit each piece, they definitely are the best and most secure bags on the market, just know they are not light and usually require a surface that you can wheel them around, if you are doing work outdoors, don't expect to lug these with you:) Good luck!!!

Yes, that would be no problem. The straps will extend quite long amd can be tightened or loosened as needed.

Yes, there's some padding on the straps but it's not super thick. I can carry all my dive gear in the bag comfortably.

I would say yes. I purchased this bag for a day pack use while I was in backcontry of Yosemite. It was also my carry on for the flight out and had all my rock climbing gear (cams,nuts and a rope about 25 lbs). It's lightweight and really handy.

I carry a longboard with a short board on top does great. The straps are awesome. The straps are long enough for more but I do not know how scary it would get at 80mph.

I've kept about 60lbs. worth of gear in it with no problem. There was no strain to the material when doing so. I don't know the max it can handle, but it can take a lot. Hope this helped.
