53 years young and still rockin!!! 23 years on the water. Started when I met a 75 year old with a longboard and funny hat at Assateague. Theres the fountain of youth right there. Gotta try it. Now I have a surfing date with my daughter when I turn 80 even if it means strapping me to the board. Ha ha
47...surfing since i was 16...but actually just got back into it this summer after about a 15 year layoff. More stoked now then I was before...miss that feeling...glad to be back at it.
First stood up on a board at 13. Full time surfing since I turned 17-so 45+ yrs. Still have fun most of the time. Can't beat the feeling of a good ride.
34, Started surfing around 15yrs old, and have been catching most every swell since I was 22. Anyone here frequent cowboys/E. Ave KB?
Started surfing in utero at this insane left named fallopeon tubes... 31 years old, surfing ocean Monmouth and beyond 19 years
Alvin that guys name is/was Mort. Haven't seen him in years. Andy, hope your feeling better. You haven't missed much since last Sunday.
20 years old been surfing since i was 9 and ill never move to a place unless theres an ocean within 45 minutes
38 years old.... Started surfing when I was 8 two days after Xmas. Got some money for Xmas and found a good deal on a surfboard at a pawn shop. (had only been broken in half once!) To me a couple years to get really good at it, then I competed from age 15 - 21. Though I've technically been surfing for 30 years it literally feels like its been maybe 5-8 years! I have a hard time processing the fact of that many years have gone by.
no offense, but I don't even factor the time I spent on the gulf and east coast into my total years surfing...I learned a few basics there, but I just didn't get to surf enough (maybe, if I had lived in NC or NJ, I would). I even had a about 5 years worth of down time due to other activities here in CA, so my total years of consistent/good surfing would be about 25 years.
