“Clips on easily and securely to the paddle board. We packed it with about 12 cans and a picnic lunch/ snacks for 2 adults and multiple ravenous children. With pre-chilling the food and drinks cans and using a few ice packs everything was still beautifully chilled almost 24hrs later despite the weather being gloriously hot. The zip was a little stiff to start with but after applying the supplied ‘zip grease’ it loosens up beautifully. Friends we were paddling with suffered huge kit envy and immediately ordered one! Can’t wait to use it on our summer holiday paddling in Greece.”
“Love my 20 can bag. Zipper was stiff. I put wax on the zipper and whaaa laaah... easier to open. When not using it for drinks and snack during paddle times. I store other accessories in it, (Sunglasses, phone case, sunscreen, etc).”
“Sorry for the negative review.
The zipper is extremely stiff and difficult to unzip. One almost has to be violent with it to unzip it. It is to the point where the bag is practically unusable while on the paddle board.”
Hi Donald,
Thank you for your honest feedback. We do appreciate it as it helps us improve our products and customer experience.
Because the zipper is waterproof it makes a tight seal and can sometimes be challenging to zip, as you had mentioned. You can try use your index and middle finger to wrap around the T zipper and pull. This should make opening the zipper much easier than using the thumb and index finger.
Feel free to reach out should you have any other questions. We do offer a 30 Day Satisfaction Guarantee on all our products: https://thursosurf.com/ca/returns/
Kind regards,

“I bought this cooler to use on the front of my kayak. Fits perfect, holds ice for a full day with lots of open/close. Very happy with this cooler. Zipper is a bit difficult, but I'm hoping it gets more smooth with time.”
Stoked you're digging the Deck Cooler Bag, Bradley. The waterproof zippers are tight at first but tend to loosen up after a bit of use. Have a blast out there!
“That zipper... I know it's supposed to get easier with time but after a couple of weeks of usage I still struggle to open and close it. Other than that the bag is perfect!”
Hey Ricardo, Sorry to hear the zipper hasn't worked out for you. To get them to be watertight they can be pretty snug at first. They usually break in a bit after a few uses, but thanks for the heads up. If it's still giving you trouble. Hit us up at contact@thursosurf.com and we'll help sort it out. See you on the water, Matt Social @ Thurso Surf
