Hey! I've been surfing for over twelve years and still body board regularly
in
big waves. I'm not shit-hot, but I can hold my own too. This guys kookiness
has nothing to do with body boarding, and there's an equivalent asshole
shortboarder, longboarder and every other type of boarder out there just
trying to get us all at each others throats. Chill and ignore the cretin.
If you think don't think much of body boarding, then try standing up in a
barrel
back at the vortex where good body boarders ride. You'll notice you can't,
because it's one thing that's more accessible to a body boarder. It's not
better
or worse, just different. We get better tubes, you get faster and longer
rides
(if you're good). In an ideal world we'd all surf the same vehicle, which
would be whatever is most suited to the conditions.

Lets see... that means you started on MacDonalds trays or pool toys, correct? If
you started at 10 then you must be 27 now right? Either you are severely
retarded, have no athletic ability, are a liar, like surfing with kids, or have
an extra AOL screen name to burn...
You are out of your element... go away.

It only makes sense that
the sponge is the logic.
It gets deeper, takes off
later, get more air than the
glass.

WhirlaWhip has been taken over by Bob. Bob is communicating through him to

Either that or he is a creation by Foondoggy. He's some sort of disembodied

Don't forget us yakkers - we're not above a few buttspins when the mood takes
us. Planing hull, no fins - spins are a dime a dozen and quickly lose their

Body boarding needs no
defense! It is an art of
the water. A dance, like so
many shakas. I go deep into
the barrel. My fins glide
as I complete the barrel
roll. A dance of the ocean.
Don't you dare say
that anybody grandma can
do a belly spin. That is
not true. Can you do a belly spin?

Extremely sappy exchange of drivel, i.e. "I will do a belly spin for you, if

I am a nice stand up

You are in the tube,
and this is good. I am on
the face, and that is fun.
Standing on the board,
slicing across the wave is

But, I will do a belly spin
for you, if you hang five

Ben-
Calm down, you're new here and don't understand that the newsgroup has already
been thru at least 3 incarnations of the boogie wars. We don't need another
one. There's already enough garbage threads in here to clothe all the homeless
in downtown LA....
>then god himself came

And he named it "BOOGIE" board. So why do you insist on the usage of
bodyboard, when "god" himself proclaimed it otherwise? Isn't that inconsistent
with the above statement?
just wondering,

In mexico it is very common to see road-side carts selling mistry meat

Good ole Tommy boy. I wouldn't consider what he made a "creation" but
more so an Innovation.
Lets see. Supposedly, he simply cut out a block of packaging foam
and ironed some newspaper on it.
Did he create a new form of riding?
Surfers were prone riding and knee riding way before his first
frankenstein board! Paipo boards, baby.
Furthermore, Tom admitted that he never imagined surfers would or could
take "boogie boarding" to the level of performance we now see today.
It was more so a flotation device for the keikis (kids). For crest
riderz,
catching the inside white wash.
Sure, Tom is a great innovator. But it wasn't until the development of
higher tech. materials and advanced designs 'til we started to see some
high performance. Now guys are popping aerials, getting up d.k. and
stand-up in pits, bla bla bla.
Hats off to Tom for his innovation.
Someone would've figured it out eventually, but he was the first.
Oh, let me introduce myself,
I'm the boogyman!
No relation to boogieboards, but I do boogy.
bodyboard that is.
OK, Surff. I will hang
five. I can even sneak
in a cheater five if you
want. Go deep my
ohio brother.
no need to throw
the water on me, barfly.
I am already wet. When
was the last time you were
so deep in the socket
that it hurt?
I dont want to start any
wars. I like it here. You have
to understand how much I
love the sponge. You have
a sponge with glass, I think.
Noo need for the glass for me.
>nd he named it "BOOGIE" board. So why do you insist on the usage of
>bodyboard, when "god" himself proclaimed it otherwise? Isn't that inconsistent
>with the above statement?
I think he was still
under the influence of
disco. But it is
a body board.
No. He sealed the foam with a plastic skin, probably polyethelyne, using an
iron and newspaper.
>Did he create a new form of riding?
>Surfers were prone riding and knee riding way before his first
>frankenstein board! Paipo boards, baby.
Bodyboards were lighter, cheaper, and more maneuverable. One of the biggest
innovations on the bodyboard was the rail design (he called it vacuum-track
rails), which allowed edging without skegs.

So does that diminish the creative efforts in any way? I bet Thomas Edison
didn't envision that the electric lamp would be so prevalent or important to
us today.

Why do you applaud him, then belittle his efforts in the same breath?
Might want to read my interview with him:

You might appreciate him a bit more, or you might not.
