Got robbed at Seaside Heights today :(

Oh man what a downer. No chance you could put your car key in your wetsuit pocket? most suits have them these days. Well hope it works out... that guy who robbed you just made a deposit into the bank or bad charma...

 

i always keep my keys in a back pack on the beach so I can always watch it.

 

I always boof my keys befor getting in the water

 

Seaside Heights, why am I not surprised?

 

the situation probably swiped your ****!

 

the only problem is that alot of peoples keys are electric and forget to bring the spare key with them

 

I also have the electric key entry, I always take a plastic bag with me and put my keys in them, and then bury them under the sand when I wax up my board, put leash on etc and make sure no one is paying attention to me....I always have a marker, say a piece of driftwood, towel, snow fence post and then watch that area while surfing........ thieves have caught on to the hide a key thing on the tire/bumper......i would alert the cops to your situation and maybe the dirtbags will be stupid enough to try and come back to your car......also don't leave your windows cracked because the thieves can force you window down if they can slip their fingers in the crack......sorry for youR loss......lots of people hooked on oxy and worse and will do anything for cash....also if your worried about your car I would pull a spark plug wire or let the air out of tires or get the cops to boot it etc to thwart the dirt merchants

 

I always crouch down at the back of my car like I'm messing with my leash or something and then slide my key up under my license plate. I have a fob so the tension keeps it in place, I don't know how well it would work with a flat key.

 

I keep my keys in a small cooler- I can somewhat keep an eye on it with a towel, etc in a pile. I guess if someone wanted to nab it there is not much you can do. Good Lord, I hate thieves. Why did the jerk take your keys? Number one on my next car- Remote Entry.

 

That blows.

I use a hide a key with a combo lock on it. I figure it's just enough deterrent because you'd need a major tool to break it open.

Most lazy ass thieves don't have the time, and will move on to an easier score... I hope...

 

So I surf the first couple of jetties in and around Asbury Park, N.J. I will say no more! Oh, that's right it's making a huge come back if you like expensive food, pawn shops, crack and heroin!! Back to the subject, I drive with my valet key which I have tied a shoelace around it. Before I zip and put my hood up I wear it around my neck. Once your suit is zipped it does not move throughout your session. This has worked for years. Do not have extra crap displayed in your vehicle, GPS units or music devices. Hide everything you can!

 

bummer.. just bought a hitch safe. best thing ever

 

beat sauce man. Good Ole Sleaside. In these days we have to get more creative with hiding the keys. Pretty much any thief knows to look in the wheel wells and the gas flap. Shytty way to start off the New Year.

Look into getting PREY on your next phone. It's free.....and if you had it already, you would already know where your stuff is. This way you could have found the perp and crushed his larynx.

That sucks...hopefully you somehow find the scumbag. Anyway, I was worried about this too, so I picked up an Aquapac: http://usstore.aquapac.net/explore-...uches/keymaster-fits-asthma-inhalers-608.html

It works great...kind of bulky, but I just stick it down my back and it doesn't bother me. I've been using it several months and no issues so far.

 

X2 .. Only safe place i can think of

 

They will get what they deserve no doubt. Typical Seaside .....

 

cars with electric chips

Just make a copy of your key at your local hardware store for $2 and hide your real key in your car somewhere. the copy will unlock your doors but will not start your engine and therefore you dont have to worry about it getting wet

 

Exactly. Pretty much all wetsuits and boardshorts have a key loop/pocket in them. Nothing safer than having the key on you rather than hidden somewhere/buried in the sand.
