They say that necessity is the mother of invention, but boredom is often the mother of necessity. I had forgotten about this until it popped up today on www.booooooom.com. Tarp Surfing, the safest way to ride big waves.

0 Surf for 8 weeks in Sunny little Jersey, Channel Islands. What to do… Tarp Surfing! of course. Check out this vid of some serious land barrels. This was kindly supported by; Quiksilver Jersey, SDS, Freedom and the Quiksilver Surf School. [Blue Tarp Surfing]

But then people who are inventive, are seldom bored for long. Here’s the story of how Dodge Weirath and Wyatt Brady invented a sport.

Mountain Dew even thought the idea was extreme enough for a commercial.
