A Kite travel bag is also very important, because you need a way to travel with your kiteboards and
they dont fit easily into a standard checked bag. So by using a kite travel bag, also known as a golf bag, you can pack up to 2 kiteboard, 3 kites, your pump, harness and bars, with out any problem.

Mystic has a great kiteboard golf bag, and it protects your gear and gets it there safely.

Airline Travel

Buying the proper gear is an investment, it will save you from the high overage fees charged by the airlines. Some airlines charge as much as $200 each way for oversized baggage.
