UltraFlight Zoom 115
Introducing a line of luggage without all the excess weight - The
UltraFlight Series. These bags feature a fully opening zippered top for
easy loading. Inside the zipper you’ll find internal compression straps
that make quick work of cinching down bulky clothing, and also take the
stress off of your zipper for easy closure and extended zipper life.
End pockets are perfect for the small stuff, but there are not so many
pockets that you’ll be searching forever when you need to locate your
camera. Durability is not sacrificed as these bags are made with high
tenacity 210 denier Cordura nylon fabrics. The UltraFlight Zoom is the
largest of the series and is the only duffle with wheels.

Granite Gear Ultraflight Zoom 115
If you want to travel a bit lighter but not sacrifice roller
convenience, this is your bag. The Ultrflight 115 holds enough gear for
a multisport extravaganza, yet it weighs less than six pounds. The HDPE
framesheet and 100mm wheel assembly proved plenty tough, even when we
bumped it rudely down cobblestone streets in Chamonoix and wheeled it
through the gritty sands of Hole-in-the-Rock Road on a basecamping trip
in Escalante. Not surprisingly, the lightweight 210-denier nylon has a
few raw spots on the sides after rough treatment by baggage handlers in
half a dozen airports, but the wear isn't alarming. The internal
compression system keeps gear stable in transit and takes strain off
the light-duty zippers.
