Bodysurfing Gillis Beach with Mike Stewart and Kalani Lattanzi. #IBSD

International Bodysurfing Day
1 May was a success.
And is set in stone.

It's a day to celebrate and reflect.
There was a need,
Let's continue to fill that need
with a vision of Bodysurf in the Olympics.
(The social media posts for
International Bodysurfing Day
have begun to propagate on Google Search.)
Success and Attitude.
When I asked Kalani Lattanzi for an interview he said,
"Sure, anything for bodysurfing."
And when I asked John Shearer and Gillis Beach Bodysurfing Association
to support International Bodysurfing Day
he sent back a formal letter
of endorsement (tout suite).
And when I asked Mike Stewart
to help fill the need for International Bodysurfing Day he wrote back:
"What can I do?"
I read the message and thought:
“That's the (insert expletive) attitude!”
Success and Attitude
are intimately related,
fit into that equation?
Because up and down the line
of folk who bodysurf,
I only met with that same attitude.
It’s not a zero sum endeavor...
Grease Theme On Leaders, on Bodysurfers:
“They take conventions
and they throw away
conventionality
belongs to yesterday.
There is a chance
that we can make it so far
we got to believe right now
that we can be who we are...”
Be who you are.
Bodysurf: It’s the word.
It’s the word, it’s the word.
It’s groove.
It’s got feeling.










More to come...
Gracias a la vida.
