skooba, or better known as S.C.U.B.A is Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus. Pretty self-explanatory is it not?

See how the first letter of each word spells SCUBA?? Pretty clever huh? Well since SCUBA is acronym and therefore already taken, generally speaking. I decided to add a little of my own wittiness and spell SCUBA (the acronym) s-k-o-o-b-a (a non-acronym, generally speaking. Oh and also noticed that I used all lower case characters,save the "S", as well just to further prevent any confusion). So, even with my best efforts to prevent any confusion inadvertently created some. Pretty ironic. I'm sorry if the tone of my response might sound condescending and sting a little, but please, if you are going to ask a question such as "what is skooba?" that is remotely as retarded as the movie you named yourself after do us all a favor and think before you speak. Didn't your mama teach you anything?? So to answer your acronym-containing question, that's What The F*ck that is!

You know you're a surfer when...
You find yourself in class/work, at the bank, grocery store, with a girl, etc.
You tilt your head to a certain direction, and lose a gallon of seawater out your nose.

this happens way too often.

SKOOBA,

You know you're not a surfer when you've got time to take offense to everything and complain about your job/fam while "surfing" the net. Maybe if you didn't hang ten fingers over your keyboard and put ten toes on your surfboard you wouldn't be so angry... Teach your kids to surf maybe.

When have I complained about my job and my family. This is where I am taking offense. Listen, kid my family means the world to me lets get that straight right now. Another thing, my kids know how to surf and guess what di*k, I taught them. I didn't buy them a board and say "Here have fun don't poke an eye out" This is me taking offense to something some little college prick said on an internet forum. Yes it's naive I know but, don't EVER bring a mans family into a conversation with negative connotations clemson"surf".


Boy am I glad there are so many high and mighty people here. I once never said ANYTHING about being angry or taking offense what not. You inferred that on your own. The funny thing is I expressed an OPINION about a movie and then all of the sudden I was public enemy number one. Who gives a flyin fuc* if I don't like a particular movie or what have you.

Really Clemson? CLEMSON? Keep rippin those epic waves on the seneca river.

1. You know your a surfer when you have this conversation. (Talking about hobbies) "So, I play baseball, golf, snowboard, surf, football and.." "Wait wait wait, surf? Where? Jersey? Waves? ----This was a constant when I was in college.

2. You know your a surfer when you have about a inch of sand on your floor mats in your car and choose to leave it there.

3. Always telling yourself you need less rubber than you actually do "3/2 in 55 degree water with 40 degree air, 3/2 baby!" No put on the damn 4/3 with boots and gloves and be warm!

4. Calling off work for a decent swell. (DO NOT tell your co-workers/boss that you surf!)

5. Loving it when you meet a fellow surfer when your out of town, but if meeting a new surfer in the line up not so much

6. Always wanting to buy new gear

I guess that's good enough for now

The only time you train is when the waves are flat, and the only reason you train is to be in shape for when it's not flat.

The only places you'll consider vacationing are those with good waves.

You get skunked and your optimism continues to tell you that next time will be better.

You choose your vehicle by how capable of carrying your quiver and it is, and how well it handles driving on the beach.

You dream about your all time waves consistently and vividly for years and remember exactly where you were and when you were there.
