My fiancee is a bit more particular with her ski boots and will often carry them on.
That is what I ended up doing, renting the board and the boots. If you are a skier you probably see how many people rent the equipment and how many bring their own, especially boarders, because it is important to have your board and enjoy.
I certainly wouldn't have taken it thousands of miles with me just to show off.
And just thinking everyday for a week if your bag will ever show up resulted in "busted vacation"
I wouldn't have said anything at all if I saw any effort made to find it.
