MANERA 2016 AIR FORCE BAG
Meet the 2016 Manera Air Force Travel Surf Bag. Dedicated to surfboards, this bag is a must for those who are traveling kitesurf/surf enthusiasts. Team Rider and strapless world champion Mitu Monteiro basically lives out of this bag year round due to its perfect size and functionality.
MATERIAL RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
Material is a crucial part of a boardbag design, so we spent the time it takes on this section. Tested and re-tested, all the materials we used on these boardbags are definitely the best of the market and will follow you around the world for years.
PREMIUM 600D
600D is well-known and widely used in the luggage industry, but there are different 600D qualities. Some are tearing after a few small tours in a plane, some will perform the tracks of many trips. Our heather grey 600D on the top/right.
TARPAULIN
Tarpaulin is a name used for many different materials. What we call Tarpaulin is a robust, durable, waterproof and beautiful black mate material that will be difficult to rip up. Our black mate Tarpaulin on the down/ right.
DOUBLE GALLON STITCHING
Most of the boardbags are stitched with one gallon joining the top and bottom parts all around. Having used many boardbags we realized this joint is a sensible area, and it needs the best construction to resist. On all our boardbags, we stitch a first gallon all around the top part, then stitch a second gallon all around the bottom part, to finish we stitch both gallon together. This is a long, expensive process but it assures us our boardbags will be the most durable possible
SWIFT-WHEELS
You can have the best boardbag possible, if the wheels are cheap you won’t be able to use it for long, plus the noise it makes is the most annoying on earth. The wheels we used on our AIR-FORCE and GOLF bags are large, soft and resistant, so it can go anywhere and be discrete at the same time.
