Dakine is the brand that's carried riders' gear for over 40 years — bags, packs, gloves and accessories built tough enough to survive seasons of abuse. From snowboard travel bags to backcountry packs and some of the best-value gloves going, Dakine is a board-sports staple. At Twelve Board Store we carry a deep Dakine range, in stock at our Richmond showroom and shipping free Australia-wide.
Dakine started in 1979 in Hawaii (the name is local slang for "the kind" — the best) making surf leashes, before expanding into the bags, packs and accessories it's now known for worldwide. That surf-and-mountain heritage gives Dakine a no-nonsense, built-to-last approach — this is gear designed by people who travel with boards, ride in real conditions, and need kit that doesn't fall apart. Decades on, Dakine remains one of the most trusted accessory brands in board sports.
Who Dakine Is For
Dakine is for every rider — because everyone needs a way to carry, protect and travel with their gear. The range covers snowboard travel bags (essential for protecting your board on a Japan or NZ trip), boot bags, backcountry and resort packs, gloves and mitts across all price points, and a huge spread of accessories. Particularly strong for anyone travelling to ride, or building out the kit around their board. Reliable, well-priced, and built to last.
What Dakine Does Best
Board bags & travel: padded snowboard bags and wheeled travel bags that protect your gear in transit — see our travel essentials guide.
Packs: resort and backcountry packs, including avalanche-gear-compatible options — relevant if you're touring (see our backcountry gear guide).
Gloves & mitts: a strong, well-priced glove range — our glove & mitt guide helps you choose.
Accessories: tuning kits, stomp pads, leashes, beanies and more.

The guys at Twelve Boards just helped me to purchase three new Carver surf skates for my self and two sons, they helped advise me on what would work best for all of us as we are all at different heights, weights and ability levels, unlike other shops/websites you get to talk with experienced people that know their stuff. I got a great price and the boards turned up quickly and packed really well with no damage. Couldn’t be happier with the service and gear, very happy to recommend this business to anyone interested in these sort of sports. My next purchase will be snowboards and I will be going through Twelve Boards for that purchase also. Great shop.
There is a reason I always keep coming back to Twelve, the service and the brands. The team are super helpful, patient and don't push their preferences, they listen to your needs and experiences and help you decide from there.
Had a couple of Jones boards previously and they recommended the Howler. Who am I to say no!
I purchased two Jones snowboards on-line for my next trip to Japan. Ordering through Twelve snowboards was a smooth experience and they kept me up to date with my order from the time I placed the order to delivery. I would highly recommend Twelve for the best gear, customer service and I wouldn't hesitate to order through them again. Thanks guys!
Incredible company, my Burton Swash jacket was exactly as advertised, great website, good post purchase communication and fast postage. Overall, a perfect experience!
