Maybe I'm lucky -- I haven't had any problems. I don't think it is an especially nice bag, but it isn't especially bad either. It's good enough.I had that same Dakine bag. First trip the skis moved quite a bit from check-in at the airport to arrival at the resort. Same on the return plus my look pivot heel piece which I packed oriented facing the sides of the bag was now facing the top of the bag due to the skis rotating a 1/4 turn and they punched multiple holes in the bag! Sets of perforations clear thru in the size and spacing of the heel-cup part that clamps onto the boot protruding DIN thing. And no the Look Pivot's dildo (lack of a better word) did not pop up as it would if clicked in. I returned the bag to REI. No such trouble with the Ski Vault 2x roller, so far the thing is bomber, it is on the heavy side but also made of a Nylon which is a stronger textile and less prone to tear than a Polyester bag like the Dakine.
