Read: A fun story you won’t otherwise see!

Nobody reads Surf Europe but everyone should! It funny!

Surf Europe might be one of the greatest producers of content these days. France’s ideological breadbasket absolutely crackles with very funny stuff. I think, though, that their web traffic is down near maybe zero. And that’s where your beloved BeachGrit comes soaring in to save the day!

Like Robin Hoods we shine a bright spotlight on the noble but unregarded! We steal from the poor and give to you the middle class! Take, for example, this great story comparing how you drink your coffee to what kind of surfboard you ride.

Take, for example…

POUR OVER

Not so long ago, you could buy plastic versions of these that sat atop your cup, at the supermarket for about 2 bucks.

Now they’re glass, with cool wooden and leathery bits, Japanese design influence, but basically the principal is the same as the plastic ones. You can pour it in slower or faster to like, totally control the brew.

If you went and bought one of those kettles with the spout to complete the aesthetic, well, I’m not going to say you’re a victim. I’ll just say this: Getting a single fin is one thing. A good thing. Then getting a retro wetsuit top to go with it is a whole ‘nother matter entirely.

Now that is funny!

Read the rest here! Give that Surf Europe your love!

yes, this, it pains me to say, is the best thing written about surfing in about two years.

Bali, “where the self-absorbed go to congratulate themselves for liking eternity pools on Instagram.” And the Mentawais, where suddenly there’s “a nine-pack of 55-year-old Kiwi dentists” next to you in the lineup.

You’re right Chas!! All hail Surf Europe!
