Keys

Try getting one of those magnetic key holders. I'm sure you'll be fine and your car won't get taken. What I do is take off just my actual car key from the chain and put it in my wetsuit.

You could try this. Wear a speedo underneath your wetsuit. then you can tie the key through the ties in the suit. If you double knot it, the key will be fine. And you won't really feel it that much. That's the only thing I can think of, if you keep it on you while surfing.

I've NEVER had a problem with my key staying in the wetsuit's key holder...EVER.

What; A surfer with money - now that's an oxymoron if ever there is..

Seriously, when car-ing to a break, I take nothing other than what I need & can afford to lose if I get taxed (never happened yet but...). And I wear my car key around my neck on a thin bit of elastic under my rashie/summer wetsuit/winter.

.... yep same as Brent , everything goes in car and key goes on lanyard' around my neck down the back of my wetty , no problem .. cant feel it and no key related injurys as yet :wink: .. but for cash and stuff if you havnt got a car at your spot' ..then i have seen these really slim waterproof tubes on a lanyard' (waterproof string ! ) ..some are rectangle and very slim so's you dont notice it down yer back :) ... if you cant find anything at a surf store ( which i couldnt ) ..we found them in ' Outdoor pursuits ' type shops .

" if not then hey " ..just give yer cash to me via post and i'll look after it for ya :lol:
