Great Lakes Surf Adventures: About

Welcome, welcome, welcome...!

Pleasant Beach, Port Colborne. Winter 2012

In the past few years I have found myself trying to do what most people would say to be impossible and crazy. However, with time and help of people I've met along the way I started finding my path to achieving one of my many goals. Today, I can proudly say I surf the Great Lakes of North America.

To some of you, this might sound shocking or unbelievable. To some others - probably just a few- it sounds familiar and awesome. It doesn't really matter on what extreme of my audience you find yourself. At the end, the final goal of this blog is for me to share withe the world the great adventures me and my friends get into while trying to get to surf waves in the Great Lakes.

These waves are produced by large storms crossing over the regions of the Great Lakes. These storms are particularly strong and consistent during Fall, Winter and Spring. Sometimes, air temperature drops below freezing temperatures reaching up to -25 Celsius with windshield. It is at these times that our will to surf is challenged by mother nature and only a few brave, passionate-driven and crazy dudes come out in search of perfect waves.

My mission in here is not to convince you of coming out with us during summertime when it is nice and toasty or even less during winter when it is freezing and a tad cold. My mission here is to show and share the excitement that runs through my veins when I hear the wind blowing strong and hauling all night long. I want to show, despite the cold weather, how beautiful it can be to surf the Great Lakes all year long. I look forward to post about surf trips and adventures I go through whenever the winds are blowing and I step to the challenge of Surfing the Great Lakes of North America together with my best friends.
