In 1978, retired Navy SEAL Dock Hooks reported to basic training in San Diego, CA and within two weeks his surfboard was stolen. The problem – there was no security device available at the time to lock and secure a surfboard from theft. As such, Dock worked on the concept of a surfboard lock. Over time, Dock developed the Jaws lock, a revolutionary lock and first of its kind. The Jaws lock is strong and secure, simple to use and constructed from high quality weatherproof materials. The Jaws lock is also the only lock capable of attaching to a board’s leash plug or fin box (when used with the fin box cleat). With the advent of SUP Paddle Boards, DocksLocks created the Paddle Lock so that you can secure both your paddleboard and paddle together. Today, DocksLocks secures surfboards and SUP Paddleboards around the world.
