Master Lock - Key Safe
Master Lock. Key Safe is a great way to secure your key while you go surf, skate, or any other sport.

I have heard many first hand stories of guys setting their keys on the tire or under the bumper whilst they surf only to find their vehicle gone or vandalized. The Key Safe is a cheap way to keep your stuff safe.
