that sort of thinking would also lead them to strap a bunch of fancy surf boards to their van.
I didn't even think about the gear either, yeah pricey... the gf of one of the surfers who lived in Guadalajara stated that she regrets not telling them more about the dangers of traveling in Mexico.

Ms Gomez, who is Mexican, said the pair may have rushed to reach Guadalajara, where she planned to meet them.
"They hurried to get here and I think they travelled by night," she said.
"I had told them of insecurity, but never told them of the horrible things that could happen. I feel a little responsible for that? Everything points to it being them because the van matches; it had a bicycle.?
