Don't You Dare Ever Try To Say That Boogie Boarding Isn't Gnarly
I feel like boogie boarding has gotten a bad rap over the years as essentially being the JV version of surfing. I feel like a lot of that has to do with the fact that Squid was always ripping it up on a boogie board in Rocket Power.
Nobody wants to be a squid. But by the transitive property of gnar if Squid boogie boards and you boogie board, that makes you a squid. Plain and simple. But now it’s time to take back the identity of boogie boarders everywhere. I mean sure, maybe it takes way less skill and its way less cool than standing up and actually surfing a wave. But if you’re eating shit like this…
…then I don’t care how you’re riding the wave. You could be standing up, laying down, sitting cross-legged, whatever. It’s still a full send regardless. Sometimes you get pitted, and sometimes the pit gets you. That’s just life when you’re out there shredding the gnar.
