I am getting thin on top, I need protection 
has anybody seen in a shop one of those (cap with strap) I try a helmet but it feels unnatural! 
what do you do? is it ok to use uv cream like 30+?
see Paul at 2nd wind thats where i got mine 3 seasons ago and its still going strong
The Wetspot in fyshwick have heaps, every style/ colour you want. But I guess Canberra is a fair way to come for a hat !
You can easily sew a strap onto your favourite hat, y'know! The sad fact is that not all great hats come with chin straps!
Plenty of bucket style surf hats with chin straps on market.
Ive got a Excel brand one with a hard brim at the front so it doesnt blow up when sailing or kiting. Its good for the protection all round - ears and face etc being the full brim.
Had a Billabong or Rip Curl one (cant remember) but the material was pretty heavy when wet and became annoying where as the Excel one is nylon and dries quick as with a much more comfortable strap. Be conscious of the strap when trying on different brands as when looking around all the time the wet chin strap can chaff pretty bad (looks like someone cut your throat after long session) Dont have that problem with the Excel.

Folically challenged too. Get and FCS hat. Been using on for years.
Looks cool too. It's only when you take your hat off that the girls run a mile. :(
Go with a helmet...bloody scratches & dings on bald heads don't impress anyone (trust me, I know!)
Did you find a cap?
Oooh sod it I was trying to make a certain thread drop of the bottom of the page but I have got bored.
