Surfing into Spirituality and a New, Aquatic Nature Religion

Now lets get back to the roots of all things 'Soul Surfing', the PDF below is a great tale about 'Soul Surfing' and spirituality, a reminder why we ride waves and who we are as SolSurfers.

"Soul surfing is a powerful, elemental activity that surfers indulge in for the pure act of riding on a pulse of nature’s energy, and the contentment this instils (sic) in the heart. The key is how the experience connects the surfer to nature, its energies, and its wild creatures (Moriarity and Gallagher 2001: 77)”
