Excellent quality as always from Red Paddle. Pricey but if you are looking for a very sturdy deck bag and dry pouch then this is for you. For my needs maybe a little over engineered but I used the dry bag as my smaller piece of hand luggage on BA and it fitted nicely under the seat in front although it’s very slightly over their dimensions. Shame it’s not a backpack, it has a shoulder strap but I didn’t find that adjusted enough for me (5’6 female). So when off the board I used the carry handle which was ok. Shame the handle isn’t quite wide enough to slip over the handle of a carry on wheelie. Seems watertight but only really tested by splashes on this trip. The pouch has a lot of volume for what you can get in it. I presume it floats but didn’t test it. I couldn’t see how to clip it easily to the dry bag. I suppose it’s meant to attach to the bungees but then it seemed a bit loose. All in all ok, not 10 out of 10 from me but I’m sure hardcore people would be very impressed :-)
