A pictorial journey into the hilarity that is surfing in Southern California – with a focus on poor etiquette, bad photography, body contortions, overcrowding, and bad surfing.
Stop by daily to see if you've been caught doing your best stinkbug power-squat...and please, don't be afraid to be my muse!

Looks Like A Memorial Paddle-Out!
I wonder who died? Oh yeah, the sport of surfing, thanks to SUP's. Pic sent in by reader seth.
Why do you care if people ride SUPs? We're just having fun and not bothering anybody. Ooooo, you are so cool, only ride what the pros ride. Oooooo, I'm so impressed.
bart - I really don't care what people ride as long as they are respectful of the rules of engagement in the lineup.
Unfortunately, the SUP craze has exploded in Southern California (my point of reference) and there are guys who can barely surf now plowing through lineups without etiquette and endangering the wellness of innocent surfers in my local area. This makes it a problem.
Have a good day.
PS. I'm not sure what the "pros" ride, but I'm pretty certain that what I ride isn't typical in their quivers. Think 5 fins and Ventura roots...
When I called for a cleanup on aisle 5, I didn't mean the whole staff! Bart - SUP's aren't the problem, they are a symptom of a problem. WYD makes the point above. Ooooh I ride what Laird rides, that makes me so cool... ooo I'm so impressed.
a big circle jerk! looks like one donkey got tired and had to sit down. or maybe he's taking a dump

I sent that to you awhile ago...I found it on a website I can't find right now. Miserable existence.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad Bart is short for Bartholomew.
ReplyDeleteI'm also glad Bartholomew's pink Roxy panties have been curled into a bundle.
There you have it. My apologies to you seth! I'll change the original post.
ReplyDeletePeople that ride SUPs are wankers.
ReplyDeleteI lost a contact lens, everyone stop and look!
ReplyDeleteNo biggie...you didn't have to change the post for me. I was just excited to get waves this weekend.
