Surf Board Sock – DIY

On a rainy afternoon I was browsing the internet, looking for a nice board sock for my new ride. I was dreaming away on the most beautiful hand-sewn stylish board socks that are out there.

There was only one problem: the price. Handmade and beautiful things made under non-exploitative circumstances have their price. Having spent quite some bucks on a new board, fins, leash and so on, I was just not ready to spend another 100 or something on a board sock.

So why not sew my own board sock? I am not a big sewer myself, but pillows and easy stuff are fine AND I own a sewing machine – so: let’s go! Here is how you can make your own surf board sock.

Of course the list is not complete, but we see these items as really “essential” must-haves, having experienced regular facepalms when we again forgot one or two or even more of them.

The Mobile Surfdoc – When two passions come together

We met Markus Emerich on the Surfing Medicine International Conference in Biarritz two years ago. As an ENT Doctor, he was impressively exhibiting two scientific posters and was eagerly visiting all of the lectures. His just-married wife Charlotte was accompanying him and they were traveling with their most beautiful balsa-wood longboard, a wedding gift. As there weren’t as many waves as we would have wished for, we didn’t share a large amount of time in the water. But during several talks and drinks it became obvious what a cool person he is: literally sharing a great passion for surfing and medicine, traveling and having a good time with good people. Needless to say Charlotte was at least equally charming.

As a landlocked, hard working doctor, those passions could not roam freely, so the young couple had a plan. The plan was: Traveling around the world to get as much surf as possible, being a Surfdoc and meeting great people along the way.

And so it went: the project Mobile Surfdoc was born. And what was more natural to Charlotte to set up a travelblog as a journalist so we could all be part of the „Surfsmurfs’” adventures.

Surfing is Therapy

DCIM101GOPRO

Survive. Surf. Live.

We are lucky. At least most of us are. We can travel, walk around, learn a great watersport, or skating, or skiing. We can walk out of a hut, grab a board and jump into the waves. We can have happy minds and healthy bodies. And we all want to live our life light-hearted and full.

If there is something that makes us grumpy, our favorite sport, named surfing can cheer us up instantly. There is so much power we can draw out of it.
