Haha, some of us are Aussie, but there's contributors from around the globe these days. We have bag designers, retailers, and heavy users all contributing content, trying to share better ways to carry. There's a number of One Baggers in our audience, but Maria is right, it's hard to only be a One Bagger when you're carrying surfboards or kayaks, so there's some tips for the larger stuff too!
