Ascan Boardlock

FAQ

What is the Ascan Boardlock and what is it used for?

The Ascan Boardlock is a board lock for surf, SUP, and windsurf boards. It screws into the fin box (e.g., Powerbox, Tuttle box, or US box) and serves as an attachment point for a security cable or lock to prevent theft.

Which fin boxes is the Ascan Boardlock compatible with?

The Ascan Boardlock is suitable for common fin boxes such as Powerbox, Tuttle box, and US box. This makes it compatible with many windsurf, SUP, and foil boards.

Is the Ascan Boardlock suitable for all board types?

Yes, the Boardlock is universally applicable and works with windsurf boards, SUP boards, and wing surf or foil boards, provided they have a compatible fin box.

How do you install the Ascan Boardlock?

The Boardlock screws into your board's existing fin box. You can then thread a security cable or lock through the eyelet at the top to secure your board.

Do I need additional accessories to use the Boardlock?

For the actual security, you need a separate lock or security cable threaded through the Boardlock's eyelet. The Boardlock itself only provides a secure attachment point on the board.

Does the Ascan Boardlock really protect my board from theft?

In combination with a suitable lock or steel cable, the Boardlock creates a secure attachment that makes it significantly harder for someone to quickly take your board, providing reliable theft protection at the beach or by your car.

Can I leave the Ascan Boardlock installed while surfing?

The Boardlock screws into the fin box and stays securely in place. It does not interfere with normal surfing, but can be unscrewed at any time if needed—for example, to install a fin.
