I was listening to surfing on sine waves the other day in my car, driving to the beach, getting ready to do some surfing, and then I wonderd if any of you guys/gals do some surfing? I wonder if richard ever gave it a try.
People surf in all kinds of conditions and places now adays. Alaska, Ireland, Maine...... and wet suit technology and design has gotten so good its amazing. I have been surfing since I was 8 years old. Its just great fun, especially with close friends and family. Sometimes I surf on a short board, but I mostly longboard. I have a 9'8 Boss board, a template that is based of how boards were shaped in the 60's. I like that classic style, riding the nose, trimming, I try and stick to that style of surfing. I surf at a spot called San-O, I am part of the sano surf club and usually go out every morning, fun stuff. I used to compete but I dont like the compeditive attitude that goes along with it. You meet some really good people and its like family almost when you go out enough at your favorite spot. Nothing like surfing in the summer time and hot dogging it on your board to show off to the ladies with the tiny amounts of clothing. ;*)
So have any of you been out surfing? did you have fun? Did you go longboarding, shortboarding, bodyboarding, body surfing, skim boarding? People here are from Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, U.S, England.... all over, and surfing is all over the world now, kinda neat to know you can surf just about anywhere.

i live in minnesota so no surfing for me. i am a little envious of you as i'd love to surf. it seems like such a sublime sport. there are certain hardcore crazy surfers who head north to Lake Superior during the stormy season, wait for some deadly winds and hit those waves. the thing is, lake superior is like 33 degrees farenheit!

I've surfed once or twice. I could stand up OK but the waves were really small. It was great though, i'd love to do it properly.
I skate (when the weather allows it) quite a bit, theres loads of good spots and skateparks here. I've skated for about 12 years. And I still fking love it. I kind of skate miniramps and bowls like surfing, slash grinds, frontside ollies etc. No switch hardflips for me.

Richard would of almost certainly tried surfing at some point- Cornwall (where Richard grew up) has most of the good surfing beaches in the UK. Most cornish youths have at least had a go.
I can surf on a board (not very well) and I haven't for years now, but I'm still a pretty decent surf canoeist.

I'm not a record "collector", but I do wish they'd re-issue surfing on sine waves on vinyl.

Cornwall one of the best surfing beaches in the U.K? wow thats a neat factoid, thanks Ceri JC.
On the sleeve of Surfing on sine waves, the picture with Richard going down the subway stairs, on the release Budakhan Mindphone by squarepusher, Tom is in the same stairway on the back side of the album, it looks like the same stairway anyway.

I went to Corwall at xmas... it's beautiful. I went to a cove / beach that looks like the one on the cover of Sine waves... lots of surfers there, some pretty big rollers coming in. I took a few photos which i'll put up if anyone wants to see them.
