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.

Baja Trip












Well Samainians, I am back in the GH once again. The Baja trip was killer. We surfed 2 to 3 sessions a day. I was super stoked to surf my buddies 7' 6"Walden Magic Model. That board is super fun and great for all kinds of waves. As you can see in the photos, the scene over the weekend was awesome. This place is called K58 which stands for 58 kilometers south of the boarder. Lots of Californians camping out for the weekend. Lots of peaks up and down the beach so plenty of waves for everyone. All around great time, minus the Montazuma's revenge I got from some carne asada tacos at a local stand. I am still feeling effects from that. So, we made sure to get the SAMA shirt in the photo. Lets see how many places we can get SAMA shirt photos taken in!
