Redneck Surfers

SPF50 for everybody

 

Yea... not sure if there are any more joining the ranks, but a lot of the older guys are pretty redneck. Even my own kids know I'm a redneck. They make fun of me all the time...

 

shoes on the beach. surfin in cutoff jean shorts. wifebeater/rashguard. busch. i usually enjoy them until they leave their trash on the beach

 

LOL. I started surfin' in cutoffs 'cause Birdwells where to expensive for my Old Man to buy. Had to mow some yards to get a proper suite. Grew up red and it still shows sometimes. Guess that's why I don't like uppity crackers. I'll confront anyone who trashes the beach, anyone!

 

Last weekend I was watching a surf comp and a grocery bag was blowing towards the water. I did a couple of zigs and zags and caught it before it blew into surf comp zone. The judges gave a full commentary on my moves and then gave me a CB Surf Shop hat as a prize. They were pretty funny...

 

The back of my neck gets hella sunburnt from all the time I spend outside, but I also think that "Blue Collar Comedy Tour", "Duck Dynasty", and the like are major contributors to what is wrong with this country (glorification of being a lazy, ignorant pos).

 

Lol! I actually don't own a rashguard. I find the oldest, nastiest, pit stained white undershirt in the drawer, and that's it for the season.

 

That's funny! My son does the opposite... He will surf in a long sleeve, button up dress shirt.
I'm a rash guard kind of guy, but i forget to rinse it out sometimes and then I have to hold my breath more out of the water than in the water...

 

Out here, the guys driving up in Westfalia's and Subaru's and dressed in the latest Frosty fashions with Ugg boots or Reef sandals with puffy goose down jackets while carrying the latest ...Lost, Lib Tech or CI are the ones you usually find paddling into whitewater.

The guys who pull up in an old rusty pickup or van wearing Carharrt and Romeo's or Grunden's and looks like he should be fishing off the jetty are the guys who are usually yelling the aforementioned off the peak.

 

True that.
On Cape you can tell if it's gonna be a good session when you roll up based on how many toyota tacomas or 4runners (pre-2012) are in the parking lot. It's like the official surf vehicle of the working class Cape surfer, and pretty much everyone who drives one kills it.

 

nice

been rocking the 2001 tacoma for decade and a half. not saying that means anything regarding my surf ability, but I figure if I get a flannel and a dog and a trucker hat, I can TOTALLY look the part

 

I once watched a guy in a wifebeater wrangle a shark to shore that his hillbilly buddy had caught off the pier.. That has nothing to do with his potential surf ability; however, the quote redneck surfer beachgoer stereotype seems to be absolutely fearless of sharks.

 

I got a 2000 and 2005 4runner. The 2000 is still doa at the moment and sitting in the driveway. If that doesn't qualify me as a redneck surfer I don't know what does.

My trucker hat came curteous of a 20 something cool surfer who rolled up with his brand new Sbort and paddled out with his trucker hat on. After losing it on the first wave then getting worked or missing every wave after that he gave up, went in, and left. I caught a few more then went in for a bevvie. The kids found the hat in the surf and gave it to me.

Score one for the old redneck y'all.

 

Im sorry. But unless that 2000 4 runner has rusted out fender panels and bumpers, you don't qualify as a redneck. And sitting in the driveway means there is hope for it. Now, if it were in your yard rusting under an old tree, and with weeds growing higher than the windows....you are in.

 

I don't appreciate all this cultural appreciation going on in this thread. You weren't rednecks until it became fashionable. Please don't exploit my culture for your enjoyment.

its pretty easy to spot some of them, they all surf with their work boots on!

 

You know. This has nothing to do with surfing. And I'm not saying I'm a redneck. In my mind being a redneck isn't a good thing. But i hate the new fashion statement of wearing work boots. I wear work boots..... for work. There beat to sh!t because i actually work. And when i see some guy with a perfectly groomed beard wearing the cleanest work boots i ever saw..... it grinds my gears. Baby soft hands like they have never even held a screwdriver. But at least they look the part. ***gots
