A carry bag intended to accommodate an item, the bag comprising a pair of major panels which have the general configuration of the item to be accommodated by the bag, the major panels being interconnected around their perimeter by a side wall formed of a flexible sheet material, a fold line being formed for substantially the full extent of the side wall substantially intermediate to the major panels.
A carry bag intended to accommodate a surfboard, the bag comprising a pair of major panels which have the general configuration of the surfboard to be accommodated by the bag, the major panels being interconnected around their perimeter by a side wall formed of a flexible sheet material, a fold line being formed for substantially the full extent of the side wall substantially intermediate to the major panels for folding the side wall inwardly, wherein the flexible sheet material comprises outer layers of a suitable fabric or sheet-like material and an inner padding layer and wherein the fold line is defined by stitching extending between the outer layers of the side wall and holding these layers in close contact with the padding layer.
A carry bag intended to accommodate a surfboard, the bag comprising a pair of major panels which have the general configuration of the surfboard to be accommodated by the bag, the major panels being interconnected around their perimeter by a side wall formed of a flexible sheet material, a fold line being formed for substantially the full extent of the side wall substantially intermediate to the major panels for folding the side wall inwardly, wherein the side wall. includes an end panel formed of the flexible sheet material, the end panel having an intermediate fold line aligned with the fold line of the side wall and second fold lines disposed to each side of the intermediate fold line and substantially parallel thereto for folding the end panel inwardly.
A carry bag intended to accommodate a surfboard, the bag comprising a pair of major panels which have the general configuration of the surfboard to be accommodated by the bag, the major panels being interconnected around their perimeter by a side wall formed of a flexible sheet material, a fold line being formed for substantially the full extent of the side wall substantially intermediate to the major panels for folding the side wall inwardly, wherein the side wall is generally tapered from the rear end to the front end of the carry bag such that when the carry bag accommodates the surfboard having a tail fin at the rear end, the bag can accommodate the tail fin, wherein the side wall includes an end panel formed of the flexible sheet material, the end panel having an intermediate fold line aligned with the fold line of the side wall and second fold lines disposed to each side of the intermediate fold line and substantially parallel thereto for folding the end panel inwardly, the end panel further including a central fold line substantially perpendicular to the intermediate fold line and wherein in the region of the side wall adjacent each end of the end panel, the side wall is formed with a pair of divergent fold lines which extend from the intermediate fold line towards the end panel in a divergent manner.
