I'm thinking about designing a ski utility backpack for a project in school. Anyway, what features would you guys like to see in a pack if you were designing it. Throw out anything you can think of that would help you out on the slopes (i.e. ski holders, hydration unit, etc.).

Just same yourself some time and copy a medium size Dakine pack, they know what's up. A holder for my 40oz bottle would be nice. And maybe a really good strap system that doesn't constrict your pit vents as much, because lots of jackets still don't have core vents. Oh my, a semi useful suggestion from me...wow.

hidden pipe/weed pocket, somehow designed so the smell cant get out


Dont get gloves though, gloves are out. just use a cigarette to keep your hands warm.

no no make it raw and out of cotton- so everthing gets drenched- then make some gangster attachments- and a stick that folds out to hol up the skis over the shoulder

on inside of one of the arm straps put a safe padded pocket for an ipod of minidisc, def a water hydration thing, easy pocket to reach while on the lift to put gloves away, a helmet strap so it can dangle when not necessary, and chest straps for skiing, oh and if possible, a flatscreen tv for the lift rides

proper straps to put your skis on when hiking in the BC, a solid back the bag doesn't fall flat when its empty, a cover for the bag for when its snowin and you wanna keep your shit dry
