Nishii started using the Norwegian brand Db's travel and backpack in February 2016.
At the time, Db did not have any surfboard cases. (Nishi's surfboard cases are Dakine.)
Nishii's favorite travel bag, "Db," features a lightweight ABS resin side rib structure called "Rib Cage Technology."
It is strong and can be stored compactly when not in use, making it suitable for Japanese housing conditions.
We also wanted them to make a surfboard case that has the patented hook-up system that allows you to connect the case and bag, which is unique to "Db."
I told my childhood friend and fellow surf trip buddy, Fukushima Haruyuki, the representative of "Db" Japan.
In July 2021, he finally arrived with the ``Db'' surfboard case he had completed and brought it to me, wanting me to be the first in Japan to use it!
As expected from "Db"! The design is cool and the construction is excellent.
In the five years since Nishii made the request, Jody Smith and
Craig Anderson also sympathized with this wonderful structure and joined as a founder!
"The Bunker" ¥52,000 + tax is a wheeled coffin type that can hold 3-4 boards up to 6'6" in length.
The Shelter (¥26,000+tax) is for one board and fits boards from 5'3" to 6'4" in length (but it can fit two boards if they're under 6.3cm thick!).
The "Db" surfboard case is only available at limited stores worldwide,
Love Surf will be the first in Japan to stock the Backpacks after the holidays and begin selling them, so look forward to it!
Where will you take these cool board cases on your trip?
