Product Info
Cleanline Staff Ben Says:"Flexi-Hex is an absolute necessity for traveling. The hexagon cardboard design provides protection across the entirety of the board, no matter the shape. The two-piece cardboard covering is relatively painless to put on your board. I have traveled twice using Flexi-Hex, and both times, my boards arrived at baggage claim completely unscathed! I highly recommend grabbing one of these for your next trip. It will give you peace of mind as TSA chucks your board to and from airplanes."

Additional Info
