Meet Sportube®
Situated high in the Rocky Mountain
ski town of Vail, Colorado, Highland Trading Co Inc. has
been a distributor of ski travel cases since 1991.
After working for four months with technical engineers
and design consultants, the Sportube brand was conceived,
manufactured and launched in 1996 with the introduction
of both a single and double ski case with wheels.
Based on the proven success of the single and double cases,
the Sportube line expanded in 1998 with the launch of
the much requested snowboard case and again in 2001 with
the introduction of the Master Series fly rod cases. Sportube
continues to be an innovator and leader in providing convenient
travel options for sports enthusiasts.
Living and working in the Rocky Mountains has allowed
us to create unique and personal relationships within
the Snow Sports Industry. For the last 5 years, we’ve
been the exclusive ski case sponsor for NAASF, North American
Airline Ski Federation. This is a group of airline employees,
from American, United, British Airways, UPS, FedEx to
name but a few, who compete in a US and International
race series, raising money for charity. These guys really
put the Sportubes through their paces, which provides
us with invaluable feedback for refinements and new innovations.
We’re constantly listening to people and working
on fresh ideas to ensure you have the best trip possible
no matter what equipment you are taking with you. In fact,
our cases are so versatile, they’ve been used for
transporting firearms, spear guns, kayak paddles, swords
and have just recently been discovered by kiting and soaring
plane enthusiasts.
If you’re a serious skier, rider or angler and you
want to keep your equipment at its best, check out the
benefits of travelling
with a Sportube®.
