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.

Fabulous Friday!!
Wow, the kite competition was actually cancelled due to high winds! That didn't stop the ragers from hitting it on their small boards and small kites. I of course was not there until school got out, and had the chance to kite in some big waves before the wind died out. Carving up waves with the freedom to go where you want on the kite was nothing short of epic. Then we headed to the rockpile and surfed until dark. With a huge south swell in the water, and the wind dying and switching west the rockpile turned on and the conveyor belt was working! Rides all the way into the beach and walk back out the pier. I am sure everyone else got wet yesterday so comment in and lets hear all the epic swashbuckling GL surf tales! Looks like Pere Marquette could switch around for kiting later today. SAMA rules!!!
