What a great buy and back pack! I have a Dakine back pack and wanted to purchase one for my friend for Christmas. There were many options and styles to choose from. LOTS of pockets and is very useful for school or for outdoor adventures. I even received my purchase sooner than I had expected. I enjoyed my purchasing experience and my friend loves his new back pack =) I highly recommend this product!

I bought this pack and purchased the Dakine photo block separately to go with it. I wanted the Dakine Mission Photo pack but I also wanted the laptop sleeve that this pack has and the Mission Photo pack doesn't so that I could have some versatility.
This pack doesn't have the large zipper on the shoulder strap side of the pack to access the contents of the main compartment like the Mission Photo Pack, so inserting the photo block was tight and didn't allow a completely easy access to all the padded photo compartments, but for what I needed it was fine.
I took this backpack up to Mt. Snow Vermont for three days of snowboarding, loading up my camera gear consisting of a Canon Rebel Digital SLR and extra lenses, water bottles, and other items. I found the pack to be very rugged and comfortable to the point that I almost forgot I was wearing it during my runs. The photo block protected the camera gear from damage even after several wipe outs.
The Mission Pack is tough with comfortable shoulder straps, chest strap and a waist strap. I found that the waist strap helps keep the pack in place when you catch an edge and find yourself upended with gravity and momentum deciding your fate. Most of the time I rode with just the shoulder straps and chest strap in place.
The board straps allow you to carry your board on your back. I found this helpful since I was getting over a shoulder injury that tended to ache when carrying anything for very long. I had an extra pair of goggles in the goggle compartment the whole weekend that I completely forgot about, and even after several rough landings they were in perfect shape.
The third day I remembered the water bottle pocket. This is a clever little feature that looks like a pocket until you open it up and it becomes a water bottle carrier complete with a drawstring. It held a 16oz. bottle of water without a problem (didn't try it with anything larger but it seemed like a 20oz bottle would fit), and I never lost a bottle even after a few spills.
Overall I found this to be an excellent choice for snowboarding and would work for a lot of other uses including day-to-day work. I would highly recommend it.

The bag runs "slightly" big to my liking, but I cannot deny the fact that its generous capacity is incredibly useful. I wear this commuting to school, for hiking, and just as a laptop carrier.
Definitely recommending this.

For everyday daypack use I picked the Dakine Mission Pack out of the rest of their lineup. It has only one internal zippered pocket, but it is large enough to hold all your small stuff, coins, etc. The four external small gear / camera / goggle pockets are well designed and easy to access and nicely lined with soft fabric.
Two main zippered-access compartments separate your gear nicely, and the laptop sleeve is flexible enough to not limit use on the mountain or bike. Board carry straps may get in the way at times, and might put strain on the outer zippered pocket when in use.
