Im in the market for a backpack that can carry my skis. Never had one before so i don't know shit about em. Do any carry skis, boots and have a camel bak pouch? boots and camel bak aren't necessities but skis for sure. Id like the skis to be carried comfortably, not awkward. Im looking to spend less than $100. Please post any you have for sale, any ones you recommend, or any for sale online. thanks -Grey

i told you the best ski pack and you're ignoring it. it is made to carry fat skis, 2 different ways, and both are way more comfy than the dakine bags
