I need a new mode of transport for my skis next winter and am potentially looking at a ski tube - any good/bad experiences/opinions?

I used to own one, but my skis got too fat and I sold it on a well known auction site :D
They are quite heavy and substantial, that's good for skis, but bad if you are flying with a major Tour Op who puts a daft weight restriction on ski bags in the T&C's like quite a few last winter. :roll:

I tend to use the material ones, and if your worried about how they treat your skis at airports a touch of bubble wrapped around the bindings normally does the trick 8)

yeah i agree with ian-or wrap your ski trousers and jacket around them-I have a single ski bag and managed last year to get 2 skis and trouser+jackets into it(just!)

If you value your jacket and pants do not wrap them around your skis, edges are sharp and clothes cost money.
Edit: Oh yeh, I have a double ski bag, takes 2 pairs of skis and a pair of boots or 3 pairs of skis pretty comfortably.
