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.

Soularc crew living it up SAMA style!


I thought I'd drop you dudes a link to Chet and Ric, our SoulArc riders, blog of their USA tour. These guys are living the SAMA lifestyle to the max. They both quit their job at a wood shop, left their girl friends behind, and are now on a mission showing SoulArc boards all over the West Coast for us. The mission in not only to sell boards and get the SoulArc name out there, but to maximize the adventure along the way. They've been living off the land in their hammock's in local city parks, riding skate parks, bombing down mountains, climbing, surfing, petting animals, and ton's of other crazy SAMA style adventurism. Check out some of their weekly Soularc Vids and Blog Journal they're creating along the way.
