Being home for the holidays means a lot to me. I get to spend time with my family and local friends and enjoy milder weather than that found in New York. There are lot of things to like about home, but one of the things I love most are the winter swells that hit the California coast. Being that SoCal is actually much colder in the winter than people think, I've been wearing a full suit when out surfing and changing out in the parking lot/street (like everyone else does) and wondering what to do with my wet and often sandy wetsuit.

Lately I've been checking out the Cinch Sac Wetsuit Bag/Changing Mat which looks pretty good. Functional and smartly designed, I could step into this, peel off my suit and pack it up without even getting dirty!

Alternatively there is this wetsuit bag and changing mat by DaKine which also seems to cover all the bases, but I'm not sure if it has the simplicity of the Cinch Sac.

Then FCS makes a large wetsuit bag which would be able to hold everything but offers no frills.

Perhaps the worst things I found online are "wet suit" (as opposed to wetsuit) bags. Anna Moi's "Wet Suit" Bag reminds me of earlier reflections on pink in regards to girls and tech. This bag like the Kept bag after it are for wet bikinis.

The Kept Couture Wet Suit Bag even has a little icon to remind you in case you forget. Forget high performance, it's more like high maintenance.
