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.

Spring in the Haven




Hey Crew,
I haven't posted anything in quite a while so I thought I should see if I remembered how. Maybe one of these days Sunny and I will unload our PR photos from our camera and get them on SAMA. Til then, I thought I'd throw a couple of shots of last Thursday's kite session in GH. It's been fun, lots of kiting and a couple of surf sessions in the past week. If only we could put away the 6 mm wetties...

Dude, nice. I know, the kiting has been pretty sick this past week. Big air, and small kites!! Love it! Now I just need to get a hybrid car so I can chase the wind and waves again. 60 bucks to fill up the Jeep is insanity.

Thanks for posting the local action. The shot of you kiting with the lighthouse in the background is super cool. Grand Heaven!
