Think I found the link www.kathmandu.com.au/Product/40384/Sno_Roller#. Cost $79.99 which is about the same price as they sell them where I work.

This bag is a better bag then what I was using before ( on my third nonBlokart bag now ) because of the extra length and the wheels Plus the H/D zippers .
If it will last Longer going through airports it will be good value in my eyes.

Thanks for the heads up Barak, just picked one up this morning and was very impressed with it, they normally retail at $199 but at $79.00 who can grumble.
I can fit my 2,3,4,5.5,Pod skin as well as a padded mast bag which is quite bulky, even if it only lasts for the trip to and from Ivanpah I would be well pleased which I'm sure it will but you never know with those baggage handlers.

Andy ,I am glad you like it. The nice thing about this bag that it is long enough to store the mast sections join in pairs so it is not so bulky in the middle. The sails and this padded bag should protect the mast in transit . When you get to the event I'll use the mast bag again.
I saw the abuse that those bags took , mainly by Mr PB ,- dragging it behind his kart for a few km's on the beach and on the road- not recommend but index that it can do the job - It is a tough bag
