Those guys are riding some of the most dangerous waves in the world and they get my utmost respect. They are not on waves in NJ that can be ridden by anyone with a boogie-board.

Are you a sponger? Because you should know that the face was put there for a reason... the reason being, I'm only kidding and all the comments from stand up surfers are always serious.

Also, you should not agree with him, because not everyone can ride waves in NJ on a "boogie board". And yes, I challenge anyone who does not bodyboard and thinks they can hop on it and go like the pros..to do so! I want to see it.

WOW i wont lie, it didnt even come to my mind that there was a face there. I would have known you were kidding then, my fault. Yes i do sponge. I believe anyone can "boogie board" and just ride straight in, but no your right not everyone can just start and go like the pros.

This article has been spreading like wildfire throughout the online bodyboarding community today. And I'm sure someone will have some 'cool' comments to say about it. LOSTsoul where are ya buddy?

If you want to group everyone in a general category, then the people who come down to the beach for a day & rent a soft surfboard & ride a wave a few yards would be considered surfers. Same dumb logic.

Just as anything there are levels of skill. Even in NJ, I guarantee there are BBERS who will gladly paddle out & play around in waves that most any surfer will want nothing to do with.

The surfer's in the article Laird, Cory Lopez & AUS surfer "Jughead" said that many of the slab waves ridden were pioneered by BBERS. Those are the top guys in the world charging waves & they have respect for the BBERS that dared ride the waves surfers are towing into now.

Surfers with the additude concerning BBERS & their hate for them, have a serious lack of self confidence.

This is not a dig on surfing whatsoever, I love watching good surfing, just find it funny that the ones who seem to have problems with BBERS are generally the ones who are far from being good enough surfers to talk crap to anyone.
