Good dive roller bag with durable wheels?

wheeled grocery cart

Big enough for your gear bag, then on the second trip two cylinders, the third trip is for the beer.

OP, if you’re willing to go with a cart rather than a rolling gear bag, I highly recommend this. I use it. Can handle 2 tanks with gear bag on top easily. I use mine for hauling tanks and gear weekly. Worth every penny.

Hi
If you want something you can store easily in your small flat, just take a strong soft bag and a separate two wheel foldable trolley.
Modulable, convenient and strong

I’m looking for a good-sized dive roller with durable wheels to take on local dives that require a 20 min walk on pavement and cobblestone. Most recommendations for dive rollers seem to be based on the roller’s ability to be checked on aircraft, but perhaps less so about how well the wheels hold up in non-tiled-airport-floor conditions. Ideally the bag can be somewhat collapsible as well since I live in a small flat with limited storage.

I was looking around and the dive rollers I’ve found seemed to get bad reviews in regards to durability, OTOH, I’ve found a good number of reviews for golf bags since they seem to be built for dragging around outdoor terrain all day, and they seem to be the right size. Has anyone considered/tried those?

I got one of these for cave diving and have used it a few times without destroying it. It’s not a roller duffle you can fly with but it will carry two Hp 100’s and an Al 40, along with the rest of my stuff for this goofy sport.

I got away from the branded dive rolling bags...too expensive and the quality and durability were just not there. I have been through at least half a dozen travel dive bags and finally settled on this one:

Eagle Creek Cargo Hauler 110 liter. The link: CARGO HAULER WHEELED DUFFEL 110L

I have literally taken mine around the world a few times: Red Sea, Malaysia, Thailand, Maldives, Honduras, Belize, Bonaire, Mexico

It rolls great. It is tough as heck. It is mostly water resistant. I can get all of my dive gear in there with all the clothes and stuff I need for a trip.....OR: I can get my wife's and my dive gear in one bag with little room for anything else

Have you considered a cart, my wife and I bought a gorilla cart for $100, we put all our stuff in it, 2 air tanks, bcd‘s, etc and pull it to where ever we need to go. The large wheels roll over uneven terrain, the cart is not very heavy and it’s very convenient to carry the air tanks, etc. Here is what we use:- you could just put your gear in a regular bag and then put the bag in the cart and pull it to wherever you need it!! Just an idea..

Going on the line of hard boxes, I use a Husky 25 gallon rolling tool box:

I modified it by adding a bracket and strap to hold a tank on the cover.

Hi Kyle,

I was wondering whether the inner layer is also water resistant or not, since I need to carry my wet gear back home when I finish my dive.

Thanks

Yes, You can put wet gear in this bag and the "wet" stays inside the bag.
