Surf Lock: What is it for?

Candado de Surf ¿Para que sirve?

When you go to the ocean to surf, bringing your car keys can be a concern. The surf lock is an essential surf accessory for surfers seeking security and convenience. This device, hollow inside, allows you to store your car, van, or camper keys and secure them to any part of your vehicle, such as the wheel or trailer hitch, providing peace of mind while you're in the water.

Advantages of using a Surf Lock

Every surfer, regardless of their skill level, has at some point not known where to put their car keys during their surf session. There are many tricks for leaving your keys, but they are never safe from thieves who know every trick in the book and can ruin your surf trip that you've been wanting to take for so long.

  • Security for your keys: By leaving them in the lock, you avoid carrying them in your wetsuit into the sea, where they could be lost or damaged by corrosion.
  • Easy to use: The design allows it to be securely attached to various parts of the vehicle, such as the trailer hitch, board rack, wheels, or undercarriage. In this video, we show you how to use it.
  • Resistant and durable: Made with anti-corrosion and weather-resistant materials, ideal for any surf environment.

Other methods for leaving your keys

The surf lock is presented as the definitive solution to the anxiety of any surfer leaving all their surf gear and belongings in the van or car during their surf session. Until this solution existed, many would come up with ways to leave their keys "hidden," though not always with as much success as:

  • Behind the car wheel: This is the most common, and believe us, if a thief is determined, they will easily find them and gain access to all your belongings.
  • Under a rock: Another very typical and amusing option if, after your surf session, you feel like searching for your car keys by comparing rocks by their shape and size.
  • Buried in the beach sand: Leaving your keys buried on the beach is a bad option, not because someone else will find them, but because you won't find them either.
  • Leaving them with someone: Generally, this is that poor friend who has to stay and watch over your things while you're surfing the best waves of the season.
  • In your wetsuit: This is a good option if you don't mind rusting your keys or losing them in the waves.

Stop stressing and get one so that every surf session is a safe experience and your surf gear is protected. Visit our website for more information.
