Update on the ThinkTank Roller Derby

Sitting here planning my day my buddy Mike – and just wanted to give you an update on the Think Tank Airport Roller Derby that I packed for the trip.

Ive been a big fan of the Thinktank International bag for a rolling bag for airports, but there has always been a couple of things i’ve just had to get used to:

• I’d place my laptop on top of the dividers, and seriously squish all of the gear on the lid so that all of it would fit.
• When this thing is loaded up (and it packs a TON), dragging it when it rolls could be problematic.  Youre pulling a lot of ‘heavy’ .  Add to that navigating onto a plane and it makes it worse.

What I didnt like about rollers was that you couldn’t tip them when you needed it.

That’s until now.

The loadout for this bag on this trip:

• D810 (Loaner I got from NPS – figured i’d bring it out and try to get a shot before I give it back at end of week)
• Nikon 16-35
• Nikon 24-70
• Nikon 70-200
• Nikon 35 prime 1.4
• Fujifilm X-T1 16 MP Compact System Camera with 3.0-Inch LCD (Body Only)
• Fujifilm XF 18-55mm F2.8-4.0 Lens Zoom Lens
• Fujifilm XF 55-200mm F3.5-4.8 Zoom Lens
• Fujifilm XF 18mm F2.0 Lens
• Fujifilm XF 56mm F1.2 Camera Lens
• Fujifilm XF 23mm F1.4 R Wide-Angle Lens
• Fujifilm XF 10-24mm F4 OIS Camera Lens
• Fujifilm External Grip
• Macbook Pro
• Wacom Intuos Pro Small Tablet
• Newtrent Battery for Ipad
• Gtech Mini USB3 Drive
• Cables power supplies and more cables

All of it fit.. with room to spare! Couldve added a couple of flashes in the front byt why push it.  It also has the steel cable that I like for when youre on the road and want to secure the bag.

Best part about it? The bad can roll on fours , and tip back to drag.  Because all four wheels rotate, the bag can also tip on its side and roll.  This is a GODSEND to get down the aisle with a supremely heavy bag!

So far so good with it.  Definitely recommended!
