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.

GH Special


Samasters,

Nice riding last week with the SAMA crew at the GH Bathhouse last week. Even though it was small and far from perfect It was good to be in some warm water finally. I didn't have any pic's from that evening sesh, so I thought I'd drop this epic little day we all had this past winter. Killer times, Killer site Ben!

That was a fun little day. I remember getting a lot of waves because Mitch was busy teaching a friend how to surf...ha ha.

Anybody else get out yesterday? I didn't even check the cams in the morning because it was so calm. Hoeksema called and said it was waist-high in GH. We got some pier bounce for a couple of hours, very fun with lots of unfamiliar faces in the water and a crowd of onlookers on the pier. It was a cool scene.
