quick solution, drill a big hole in the board, find a loose exposed bolt and lock tight a nut on the with your board, going no where fast
in all fairness im with Chas, i never lock them up as im a cheap skate (im am northern so its allowed, just ask WFM when he had to pay postage when i posted him something!) so i have it with me at all times. If on the rare occastion im feeling flush and i buy dinner, i eat outside and have the boards piled nearby or better still under the table however i always have a retractable lock to use as a deterant if im popping indoors shopping etc. however all it takes is someone with a decent pair of snips (pliers with cutters or wire cutters) as they will get through the cable easy peasy and the will look like they are doing the combination to other punters then walk off with the board, broken lock and snips in pocket to leave no trace so always keep them in sight.

Don't know about your setup but I spent all my saved up shinies on mine! It's most of my post-tax monthly wage all together! Well.. maybe not anymore but it was when it was new and I've no intentions of seeing one of those skiier types stealing my board.

just re read it i realised it came across wrong, i never normally lock it as its either on my feet or within arms reach so no need, however if i do leave it then its always locked up and in sight. my setup about 600 and so is the wifes so i lock them up when ever i leave them! sorry for the confusion..
