Gravis L-Case 15
Gravis L-Case 15

Be careful of sizing before you buy
Pros: Seems like a good protective sleeve--- for $10 or $15 (NOT $65).
Cons: Made in China, like everything else. Does NOT fit my dv5 series 15" HP laptop!! Will probably request a return, if shipping isn't prohibitive.
Customer Service: Shipped same day

Burton Board Sleeve
Burton Board Sleeve
4/15/2009


This sleeve fits like a glove
Pros: 160cm size stretches to fit great on my 164cm board. Nose and tail padding seems of good quality. Velcro straps secure board nicely. 3 ways to carry (backpack style, shoulder strap, hand strap).
Cons: Overpriced at $60. Wouldn't pay more than $40.
Other Thoughts: Bought this sleeve end of season, so haven't had the chance to really use yet. Bought it for transporting in car with fold-down rear seat-- don't want it banging against friends' boards while driving. Also should work great to store board in off season.
Customer Service: Shipped same day

Graphics: kid tested mother approved
Fit: heel is snug
Width: average
Laces: speed lace
Great fit
Terrain Use: Speed, Powder, Backcountry, Groomers, All Mountain
Pros: Heel hold, Comfortable, Well known brand, Popular model
Cons: Difficult in & out
Other Thoughts: Used 4 days in Utah, 1 day back east. Very form-fitting; was initially tight on my right big toe, but has since adjusted comfortably. No complaints whatsoever on comfort or performance though toes were occasionally cold in 25* weather on lifts, possibly due to overtightening? Have previously worn Vans Fargo Boas for 4 years-- Burton's speedlacing is nice, but not as easily adjustable as Boas. With Boas, you can loosen the tongue going up the lift and have them retightened by the time you hop off. The Burtons can do the same, but with significantly more effort. Speedlaces require pulling the handles out of the storage slots, then replacing them after tightening. Excess/loose lacing must be tucked into boot or otherwise risk being bound up in binding ratchets when stepping out of binding at end of run. Found lining to be difficult to remove for overnight drying/ airing out. Size 9.5 boot are true to size and fit great in Burton's medium sized bindings. Agree with other opinions that there is no heel lift. Again, very good performance and comfort.
Customer Service: Shipped same day, Members/Staff were helpful
