My ex made me a good bag last year, it took her a couple hours. If you or a lady you know has any sewing skills you could have one, and they dont cost an arm and a leg like aquaskins. 2" pvc pipe cut to whatever length your largest plug is. We were going to make a bunch and try to sell em but it was during fishin season so it didnt work out so well. Makes me wonder why she is an ex...

I have used empty caulking tubes for inserts they work great and are light weight.

I have been looking for replacement tube holders for one of my surf bags . I searched high and low and could not find something big and light enough to work. PVC is a little to heavy, but I found a supplier of plastic mailing tubes. www.visipak.com ..unfortunatly I do not need a cas of them.....not sure if it would be an item one of the sponsers would want to check into.......

You can also just cut the top of an appropriate sized water bottle and insert in bag

plastic tube source

A lot of our guys head to modern plastics in Bridgeport CT.

A couple of different sizes - bottom caps too. not a killer in price- mucho lighter than pvc x 10

You can use the tubing used for central Vac systems. Thin and light. P.M.
