People always ask what SAMA means. It started as kind of a joke. It was a sleeting, snowy day in early December. My friend and I were surfing a swell in Grand Haven. I looked over at him knowing we were supposed to both be at pre-Christmas family functions soon, and said "We are like Self Absorbed Michigan Adventurers." That kind of stuck, and like many of our friends we have a common passion for outdoor sports in Michigan, and we go out in any weather to get our sessions. He replied "Ya, SAMA!"

So it was born, the SAMA logo was fashioned by another like minded surfer friend from Grand Haven. SAMA is for all of you year round Michiganders and vacationers who know, love, and respect all the outdoor activities there are to do in Michigan. No matter the weather you will find us us out enjoying all the benefits of our unique freshwater paradise.

Artic Surf Session












Snowy sessions here in Grand Haven today. The swell came up quick and died out quick too. Since we have not had much surf in the past few weeks, most of us were ready to suit up. It started to get some nice size and all of us dropped in on some nice sized icy lake surf. For sure the SAMA crew represented today!! We also made some sweet surfboard Christmas cookies too. Photos of those coming soon. Great day team!

It was good riding with the whole crew again!!!! I'm glad Coop's lured me out to the end of the pier late in the sesh. Those waves were so big and clean, I wished I didn't have to leave so early! That spot was the ticket. Nice seeing Brian out there too.
