    Funny question, I know, but anyone on here surf? The odds of finding a good spot on a reset may be slim but if you are carrying your board you may be in luck. Which leads me to my real question-how big a board can you fit in your truck? Longboards are out obviously, but will a 7ft'er ride? I assume carrying it on catwalk will only ruin it or get it stolen.
    thanks!

    I know there's quite a few butt surfers out there. You can always hear them using mic clicks to communicate in Morse Code on the CB.

    Inside the Truck, maybe you can get one short enough to put on the Top Bunk in a Condo.
    If you're going to be a Company Driver, the Inside of the Trailer will not be a good option, as you will likely have a few Drop/Hooks, and some places won't let you break the Seals to open the Doors to get anything in or out.

    There's always room for a Boogie board and Duck Feet.
