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.

Grand Haven Ski Bowl





Well, the ski bowl was awesome Saturday! I know, you are thinking "seriously, how good could it have been??" Well, don't think of it as a ski resort, think of it as a killer terrain park with four tow ropes, kickers, surf walls, rainbow, box, and kink rails. A killer little lodge, lake view, sunshine, music, slush pond, and well you get the picture, a pretty good time for a Saturday afternoon 1 mile from your house. Here are a few pics that Ingrid snapped of Anna and I. We need to hit that place up more often. Maybe next year a fossil night each week to practice our freestyle skills? Not to mention a great workout going up those tow ropes for a few hours straight!

Looks like fun! Fossil night at the Hollow sounds like a great idea.
