The Boardswag Surfboard Bag is a multipurpose piece of gear for surfers that will help them to protect their board and set up an impromptu place to sleep should they require it.

The bag has been developed by the Australia-based company with a clever design that offers ample space within to keep your board protected during travel. An [integrated inflatable support frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conqueror-inflatable) can be blown up to instantly transform the bag into a comfortable spot to sleep for the night to catch the best waves in the early morning or beat other surfers to the location.

The Boardswag Surfboard Bag features welded seams to promise a waterproof integrity, while an [integrated mattress](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camping-mattress) will enhance the overall comfort.
