.2006 travel accessory guide.
Also in Surfing magazine, the 2006 Travel Accessory Guide. Most items are items that I absolutely cannot live without [and have no idea how I’ve made it this far in life without].
For starters the dockslocks. It safely locks your board to your vehicle so that you can run around leaving your board unattended. Since I have so little trust in mankind this means that I can now run and purchase food after surfing and do little errands without a second thought to my beloved [board]. It also has much larger implications, meaning that one day I might get so brave as to leave my board in the back of my truck while I’m at work [so that my lazy butt doesn’t have to cart it back and forth from the parking lot to the pool and back]. Of course that would mean it sitting in the blistering sun all day [and wax melting all over the place] but we’ll see. I WANT ONE.
Must have numero dos : freestyle audio waterproof mp3 player. I know that I’ve been saying for the past year that the invention of underh2o mp3 players is pure frivolity, but I’ve amended that statement and now know that my life will never be complete without one. Not so much for surfing [since I don’t surf with boardshorts and would lack a safe place to keep it] but for swimming [where I could just attach it to my suit or what not and be on my way] it would be a wonderful thing. I could swim for hours rocking out to whatever new music that I eventually download [I need new music inspiration by the way]. Which would mean longer/better workouts. Which would mean less flab. Which would mean world peace.
And the GoPro, well this I only want because it’s new and shiny [I’m kidding]. My California friends [awesome people that they are] got me the non-digital version for my 21st birthday and though someone [actually I do know, but I love him and don’t want to point fingers … muah] lost the little blue tabby that keeps the camera from flapping all over the place, the idea in and of itself is actually good. And it does stay to the wrist which means that I don’t have to paddle around with a camera dangling from my mouth or attach to some bodily appendage! This one is digital, runs off of one AAA battery and can hold up to 250 pictures or 30 videos. And it comes at the very affordable price of $79.95, Now if only I’d win some kind of lottery …
