Interesting read.
"Surfers, meet bodyboarders. They are your friends. They are not learning to ride waves so they can eventually stand upright (though some choose to). They are part of the evolution of wave riding. And they are here to stay. And your new best friends, the stand-up paddleboarders? They've joined the party too, not to mention kite-surfers, skimboarders and I'm sure eventually rocket-powered hydroskimmers that shoot you through a Teahupoo closeout faster than ever. Oh, I forgot; Teahupoo doesn't exist anymore. Yea, there's a new wave there but it breaks all weird; needs a good couple thousand years to start grooming that reef just right. Just a blink in eternity, but far longer than you'll be around. Which brings me back to the ocean and where we are today."
