ION Wing Boardbag Core Slim

Maintenance of the ION Wing Boardbag Core Slim

Cleaning: Wipe the bag with a damp cloth and mild soapy water as needed. Rinse off salt water, sand and dirt with fresh water before wiping the bag down. Avoid strong cleaning products, bleach and machine washing, as these can damage the PU-coated surface.

Drying: Let the bag air-dry completely in the shade, preferably hanging or standing with the opening in place. Never use a tumble dryer, fan heater or direct heat sources, and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when the bag is wet.

Storage: Make sure the bag is completely dry and free of sand before putting it away. Store it in a cool, dry place, rolled or laid flat - not tightly folded, as this can cause permanent creases in the material. Let the board dry before putting it in the bag to prevent moisture and mold.

What sizes is the ION Wing Boardbag Core Slim available in?

The bag is available in two sizes: 5'6"x21,5" and 6'0"x23,5". The small one fits boards up to approx. 167 cm long, and the large one fits boards up to approx. 186 cm.

Can I pack the board while the foil is attached?

Yes. The bag has a foil-compatible opening, so you can pack the board with the mast and wings attached and avoid unscrewing everything after every session.

Is a shoulder strap included?

No, the shoulder strap is not included, but the bag is compatible with any strap that can be attached with two carabiners - for example, the ION Shoulder Strap Core.

How much protection does the bag provide?

The bag has 5 mm foam padding that protects the board from dents, scratches, and the usual bumps during transport and storage. You can add extra padding with wetsuits or towels.

How much does the board bag weigh?

It weighs approx. 1.4–1.5 kg depending on the size, so it’s easy to handle despite the solid padding.

How does the bag keep the board cool in the sun?

The off-white PE bottom on the outside reflects the sun’s heat, keeping the inside of the bag cooler on hot days.

How do I clean and store the bag?

Wipe it with a damp cloth and mild soapy water, and let it air-dry in the shade. Store it completely dry, sand-free, and in a cool place - not tightly folded.
