Hi there,
Yes, the ski load through option and the extended storage are two different options. As far as I understand:
1- the extended storage adds a few shelves on the back panel. The whole shelf piece is removable, which opens a hole that could be used to put skis, etc.
2- The ski load through option puts a plastic bag on this hole, so no access to the boot.
So my question is how useful is this ski bag option, can I still put my skis (in their own bags) through the opening of the extended storage option.
Thanks
