For some reason many people characterize surfers as bums or druggies with no ambitions and much more. This has been a stamp that has been put on most of us when telling someone that we surf or we are a surfer. I think this is completely untrue and is getting proved wrong everyday by many surfers around the world. Surfers have started charity's, huge company's, and even going to college. How about Kelly Slater? He has won 10 world titles. Thats more than any other athlete on the planet just so you know. He compares to Michael Jordan, Babe Ruth or any other sports great that you can think of. Surfers have become not only huge icons to many, but even managers at major company's. You integrate surfing into your life with learning to respect the ocean and nature, which leads to a greater respect for the world. All in all surfing can lead to a greater respect of mankind and people you meet every day. Take a look at this video and see if you would want to be categorized as a surfer. I once read, "You either fall in love with surfing or you never touch a board again". Anyone can become a surfer, but do you want to live and breath surfing for the rest of your life, because this is what happens when you ride your first wave?
