Has anyone used one of those straps that help you carry your board?? Was wondering where you keep it when you get to the beach...??

what kind of strap? i've never had issues with carrying a board to the beach. under the arm, or if it's a longboard, on top of the head. even multiple boards it's not bad

it's an arm saver strap. Basically a sling that makes it easier on your arm when you're carrying longboards long distances.

i see...looks pretty smart actually. for some reason i had some weird visions of something completely bulky and making things more difficult than they should be. for me, i rarely have to walk more than 100 yards to get from car to the beach. there is one spot that's farther, and over a few dune lines, but i've carried two 9' softtops on my head without issues
