They have Dakine Sequence (hombre color) left in stock on EVO for 144 (usually 190). I just picked it up. Excellent bag. Lots of room, pockets, rain cover, comfortable, portable.

I have a Crumpler Haven bag nestled in a Dakine Apex (like 2yrs ago model).

I fit a T1i with kit lens, a 300mm tele lens, 50mm, and go pro. with a bunch of extra room.
really nice cuz I can get at my camera super quick and its real nice and padded for any spills.

I never understood why people like the Dakines. They don't hold much. You can cram a lot of camera gear in there, but there's not very many pockets/straps and no place to but non-camera gear (shovel, probe, food, water, etc.)

F:stop is the only way to go for skiing packs. Or you can just buy the ICU and throw it in a normal pack so that it isn't completely useless for anything other than camera gear.

The Apex is a bike pack. Not made for such items. (beacon probe shovel.)

The HeliPro is nice and big with room for all sorts of goodies.

I'm a large fan of the Billingham bags at the moment.

sickest bag ever, may not be able to hold a lot of camera stuff (bod with lens+extra lens, extra batteries, and memory cards.) but the great thing is it can hold other stuff, its perfect for activities that u might wanna bring ur camera along with a walk around lens, and it has a rain cover if ur camping and it rains, also has a sleeve for camelback bladder, and straps on the side and bottom, for tripods, monopods, or axes...or anything else
