    one would expect the would-be thief to pick the board up w/ either 1 or 2 hands, tuck it under his/her arm & walk away at a rapid rate of speed. there may or may not have been a motor vehicle involved.

    Hatchell, That sucks. I make it a habit not to leave my boards unattended for that exact reason. Unfortunately, there are some punks in VB that would steal a board in a heartbeat. Its a damn shame. Just growing up, I had or known others that had small things stolen on the beach like sandals, fins, etc.. on the beach. So, I don't even leave my board on my racks for more than a few minutes unattended and typically that only happens at a surf shop if I swing by on the way home. I do visit sandbridge quite a bit so I will keep an eye out.

    Start checkin the local surf shops in the area let them know it might be traded in towards something else . Also start checking Craigslist too

    Hope it turns up

    man last week some **** head at night stole my flip flops off a dune right by my beach house access when i was playing with my cousins. and they were nice and broken in. thankfully he took them off and buried them and they got un buried and i found them. but still why steal flip flops when someone can have a nasty foot fungus or something.

    I never got that Why you you steal someone else foot wear ????? I can see if you are homeless and barefoot but for real. You actually can do damage to your feet wearing someone elses shoes or flipflops

    I feel that. I left my bag on the beach once really early in the morning with my keys and my flip flops were next to it. I got out of the water to make sure it was still there and they weren't. So I looked for an hour and realized someone set their beach chair on my stuff. Except the flip flops were gone. At least it wasn't my car key.
