Surfing Waves

This is a warning as the summer approaches. Surfers have been increasingly targeted over the last few years as easy pickings.

PLEASE BE AWARE!

Don't leave your kit lying around and stop leaving your key under your car wheel arch. Its easy pickings for opportunists. Popular beach carparks and some camp sites are hot sports for this thievery. Don't let it be you and look out for others.

If you have been a victim or know of any goings on please post here about and make it known.

Together we can try to catch out these buggers, by recognising kit thats been stolen and someones trying to flog it. Don't give them the chance.

you notice this only ever happens in the summer or bank holidays when those thiefing chavs come down here on holiday

i had some of my scuba stuff nicked a few years back thing was they only took my mask weight belt and boots and left my BCD Regs and the rest of it

do your bit to clean our streets. kill a chav

Why stop at one, maybe we could have a prize for who kills the most.

good plan. pictures of chav heads on sticks (complete with tn hats) to be sent in. most by next week wins.

And for those questioning the term chav...... http://www.chavscum.co.uk/

Great site. Very funny. How do I pronounce it, as in chav (like Chev but with an 'a' or is it different?
Curious...

It is pronounced Chev with an a.
Chavs - the plague that's sweeping the nation.

And my horizon is suitably broadened. We have a similar sub-species here...and I'm soooo not going there.
Cheers.

I got this fin box lock from this random guy when i was taking out my longboard from my car, just thought i'd spread the word bout it, i seriously feel like ok bout my board now if i ever leave it alone now for more than 5 mins but of course people can still jack your board up !!but!! they cant steal it so here ya go all

stop leaving your key under your car wheel arch

..still amazes me when i see someone doing this , cause they look at you and kinda wink as if only you and they know about this cunning hiding place
.. 2nd only to the uncrackable coded 'key under the doormat' home protection technique [/quote]

I get what a chav is now. wowwww thats like californias "bro's" wow thats nuts.

hmm ... interesting ...

I put my keys in the front wheel well all the time and i know its stupid but i cant think of a better solution for locking up my stuff. What should i do

get a wettie with a key pocket ... unless theres lots ... thatd be pointy ..

.... normally i just put my car key on my chain around my neck and tuck it down the back of my wetty ! . Ya cant feel it there and if the chain does break you'll sure as hell know if that key starts moving around your wetty ... hehe " yoww "

Best place for it dudes and dudettes

I used stash the key under the wheel arch until quite recently but now keep it in my wetty key pocket. I bit the bullit and sacrificed the torch on my key! Its a big chunky BMW key with a built in torch on it - that doesn't shine any more now , but at least my car is always there at the end of each sesh!

wet suits with key pockets thats news to me. sick ill have to invest in one! thx for the info guys

hahah well said. My bodyboard got stolen once

Easiest and best is a velcro close key pocket in your trunks. I've used one for 7 years now, never had anything better or more secure. Hiding it, just a matter of time til someone takes your ride, or trashes it.
