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.

Well crew,

Dude, I'm jelious and freezing at my desk right now. That first picture of the rocks brings back memories. I saw a guy get his head cracked open when a wave crashed into that rock, lifted him up and churned him up in the rocks below. Jumping off that rock is a sketchy way to skip a paddle out. For that dude, it was a quick helicopter ride to the hospital.
