Dakine Youth Heli Pro 18L Backpack – 18L Snow/Backcountry Daypack for Young Riders

Overview

Designed for youngsters who want to ride in-bounds or explore off-piste, the Dakine Youth Heli Pro 18L balances lightweight comfort with practical capacity. Its vertical snowboard carry puts a board-ready stance at your fingertips, whether you’re hiking from the parking lot to the chair or navigating a quick backcountry mission. The pack’s quick-dry mesh padded back panel stays breathable as temperatures shift, helping you feel steady from first lift ride to last descent.

Thoughtful, kid-friendly design

The Youth Heli Pro 18L keeps essentials organized with purpose-built pockets and easily accessed storage. A dedicated space for snow shovels and tools ensures you’re prepared for changing conditions, while an internal mesh pocket supports hydration or quick snacks on the go. A 38mm web belt delivers a snug, low-bulk fit that moves with you during rapid turns or short climbs.

Versatile for off-snow use too

When the skis or board aren’t in use, this pack doubles as a compact everyday bag. An internal sleeve fits most 15" laptops, making it a handy option for school commutes or after-class adventures. Crafted from 100% recycled polyester as part of a responsible collection, the backpack pairs performance with sustainability.

Why families and young riders choose it

The combination of padded shoulder straps, a padded back panel, and a streamlined silhouette helps reduce fatigue on long days. It performs across conditions—from chilly dawns to bright afternoons—without adding unnecessary bulk, so your young explorer can focus on the moment, not the gear.
