Jbear 113 Report post Posted December 2, 2022 (edited) Just a heads up. I wanted a Pacific Rink Pond Pack for coaching, but they are pricey. While waiting for a used one to show up somewhere, I discovered the Snowshine backpack. It was $79 from Thuro ($125 elsewhere) and it's essentially the same pack! Heavy duty construction, great straps, holds a ton, and I am thrilled! If you are in the market...check it out.

BenBreeg 493 Report post Posted December 2, 2022 My single complaint with my PR pack is the hooks they use for the straps that hold the skates in. This one has the slide in clips which I think make much more sense. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BTSyndrome 8 Report post Posted December 3, 2022 Thanks for the heads up, been looking to get a backpack style for my first pond hockey tourney experience this February in Colorado. For $77.98 shipped... or half as much as the others, I figure I will give this a shot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
