Any golfer who has been lucky enough to go on a golf trip overseas will know that one of the most awkward parts of the whole trip is getting your golf clubs from home to your destination, all in one piece.
Luckily this technology has improved quite a bit over the last decade or so, and one of the key drivers of that change has been Sun Mountain. Their ClubGlider travel bag, equipped with legs to make it easier to transport, has been helping thousands of golfers through airports for years now, and it has now reached it’s third generation.
The new ClubGlider3 builds on Sun Mountain’s original concept, with the same retractable leg system. This time around it includes enhanced protection, more durable materials and upgraded security.
The central bit of technology, which makes the ClubGlider so popular, is the retractable leg system. This supports the weight of the entire cover even whilst fully loaded, making it much easier to move through airport, car parks and hotels.
This time around the travel cover has a new ‘robust construction’ to withstand the demands of travel.
- The outer shell uses weather and abrasion resistant ripstop material, complete with matte-finish TPU laminate and water-repellent finish.
- There’s a thermoformed casing and velour-lined interior. This adds all-important protection against any bumps whilst your gear is in transit, to help ensure your clubs stay safe.
- To keep everything safe, there’s a TSA lock, two-way zips and heavy-duty zips to make sure all of the gear stays in place and protected. A dedicated internal pocket offers space for an AirTag.
- Four storage pockets provide space for all of your travel essentials, whilst three utility handles make it easier to lift the ClubGlider3 in and out of vehicles, up and down stairs and on and off luggage carousels.
The SunMountain ClubGlider3 is available in eight different colourways: Black, Black/Steel/Red, Grove, Navy, Navy/White/Red, Aurora Red/Steel/Cadet, Mauve/Steel/Stucco and Blue Denim/Cadet. It comes with an RRP of £399.
For golfers who need a bigger alternative when travelling with larger staff bags, the ClubGlider3 Tour is available in Black at an RRP of £499.
