If you’re anything like me and you simply love to skate, you must have your Skateboard or longboard with you pretty much all the time. That is why having a longboard Backpack or a skateboard backpack is an essential tool for every skater.

Obviously, the backpack makes it really convenient for you to take your longboard everywhere from school or college to your friend’s place and whatnot, but finding the perfect one can be a little tricky.

Yes, this article is going to be about longboard backpacks rather than the usual skateboard backpacks. We have seen people use those normal sized backpacks for their longboards too, which, while functional, isn’t the best solution.

Why do You need a Backpack for your Board?

There are actually a lot of downsides of having a normal backpack for your longboard as well, as the board itself is super long and what usually happens is that as you walk, it swings and keeps on hitting your legs because of its weight and size. Believe me, this can be extremely uncomfortable.

There weren’t many options available in the past and mostly people used to utilize those normal size backpacks with a little duct tape and creativity. But, fortunately one can pretty easily find different kinds of longboard backpacks in the market today.

Skateboard backpacks are really awesome, look super cool and the best thing about them is that you can easily and quite comfortably carry your longboard or skateboard around.

How We Chose Our Favorites

However, as it was mentioned before as well, one needs to do a little research and pick the perfect one for their longboards. During our consideration of the available options we chose ones that are very durable and won’t easily get damaged. Durability and quality of the backpack are really important as all these bags are usually tossed around and used roughly.

Carrying capacity was a major factor too. Riders need backpacks that can not only very easily carry the skateboard, but also have enough space to carry the daily essentials. The best backpacks have space fo longboards and items such as books, laptop, tools, camera etc.

Now, you would definitely want your backpack to look stylish and cool, have all the features mentioned above and be affordable too. But of course, you can use any backpack and some duct tape to carry your skateboard around… if you are fine with that, but the hardcore skateboarders would certainly want a proper and stylish backpacks for their longboards (or skateboards).
