I'm a degenerate park skater so I'm good with just water, spitfire t-tool, and hardware.

I dont carry one.  I skate to the spot 99% of the time so I like carrying the bare minimum on me.  a key to the house or a couple bucks for a drink.

my contribution to this thread is what I call "emergency freshness in a bag".  I encourage everyone to carry one upon their person. 

it consists of:

- 1 new white large tall tee (clean)
- 1 new white a shirt (clean)
- 1 new pair of white nike socks, in case im wearing nikes that day (clean)
- 1 new pair of white Adidas socks, in case im wearing Adidas that day (clean)

will provide pics if needed.

Mines just my general bag, it's not skate specific. I commute on my board most days so I keep a skate tool, a little speed cream bottle, good absorbent towels, some spare hardware  and a bushing swap in the change pocket and then in the laptop pocket I have a gallon Ziploc with stickers, some grip scraps, a set of bearings, a chunk of wax, extra insoles, and maybe a set of wheels if I'm going to be skating something specific. Main pocket is usually just work stuff.

Started carrying some KT tape and XL bandaids in my bag. I can't keep skin on my ankles. The KT tape keeps the bandages in place. Recently went to a camera shop and picked up some gaffers tape, it's cheaper than KT. We'll have to see how it goes.

hot tip from a long distance backpacker: Leukotape. shit will never come off and is much cheaper. leukotape plus small strips of gauze = the worlds most bombproof bandaids.

Surely that just a skate bag as in a bag with your skate related stuff in it.

You don't carry all that everytime you skate do you?

I’d assume it’s in the trunk of a car that’s driven to a spot.

Ha, yes to all the above. It actually does have shoulder straps, but also just mostly lives in my car. I don't really live in a 'walkable/skateable' city, so its a lot of driving to a spot.

bump.

still dont carry a bag but ive started to utilize hidden/secret stash spots throughout my city.  Very convenient for extra hardware, tools, wax, and shoelaces.

maintaining a mental map of working water fountains is great too.

the last piece of the puzzle is to figure out what to do with a house key if no one will be home to let me in.  Ive had the key jump out of my pocket before while skating, made it home, only to freak out when I realized I didnt have it on me any more.  luckily it was just sitting there at the spot.

You could always hide it in the usual spots (under rugs, taped to the underside of something) but at a neighbours house. That way if someone does find it and try to use it they won’t get in.

Or if you frequently wear the same pants for skating you could sew it in somewhere since it’s really only for emergencies
