4 Things You Will Forget on Your Next Tropical Surf Trip

“Am I forgetting something?” you ask yourself in the airport terminal. Yes. Yep. You betcha. You definitely are. But have no fear, we have  created a mini list of must-haves that will ensure more fun in the sun on your next tropical getaway!

 

1. Fin keys AND fin screws - Yes, you might have forgotten your fin key once before and will never repeat the mistake, BUT fin screws are a must.

 

2. Good quality face sunscreen - When surfing for hours on-end in the sun, the last thing you want is to burn to a crisp. A tried-and-true tip we suggest is using baby sunscreen. Before you call us crazy, think about it! Babies get burned very easily and we know their sunscreen is made to protect them with safe ingredients, so why not treat our faces with the same products! This sunscreen is also conveniently applied with a stick, for quick reapplication between sessions!

 

3. Extra hair ties - We have lost so many hair ties from clean-up sets or bad wipeouts. The last thing you want on your surf trip is for your hair to be in your eyes while flying through a dreamy, glassy barrel.  

 

4. Band-aids and first aid - A new surf spot potentially means new unknowns (ie. reefs and rocks). Don’t let a small cut on your foot become a bigger issue than it needs to be!
