i have one on one of my longboards and i love it…get the one from SurfCo Hawaii…it’s nice and clear and there’s no way that thing is coming off short of scraping it clean with a razor blade. O’fish’l also makes one, but i haven’t heard good things about it…the SurfCo Hawaii one is solid.
I’m no authority on this as I still drill holes in my boards and install plugs but as suggested above, I’ve heard that the EZ-Plug is the go… there is another that may be a little more accessable for you from O’Fishl as you can get them from the supplier in Australia, but I’ve not heard good news on the O’Fishl stick on leash plug.
I just looked up the website for EZ-Plug - NZ distributer is as follows:

he lost it last week on the south shore of oahu, just off Aina Hana. we were at a party on friday and it is funny how many people who surf with out leashs have lost or almost lost boards… it has almost happened to me twice, both times on small days… one of them required a blind swim out to sea in almost pitchblack…
i am just saying that if a stick on plug works so well that you can’t remove it you now have a nice board with a stuck on plug… but of course it dosn’t matter in the least…
just wondering why sticking on a plug is less offensive then drilling one in???
well, that’s because it’s clear, and doesn’t destroy the nice clean deck of your board.

the SurfCo Hawaii stick-on plug will hold through just about anything…but should the time come when you want to remove it for whatever reason, all you need to do is scrape it off with a razor blade. and then, you still have a solid, clean deck without holes dug out in it. are you really having so much difficulty grasping this concept??
