This from the surfing capitol of the World, Detroit, about Rhode Island surfing.

Depends on what and where you surf.
Pipeline on Oahu's North shore features huge waves that break over shallow water onto a lava reef. .....a bit more dangerous that soccer, to say the least.

Charlie don't surf!

I have my doubts about such "surveys". It is somewhat like that thing about 'driving in a car on the road being riskier than being in an airplane in the sky'.
I mean, what are the chances of surviving a mishap while surfing, versus a mishap while playing basketball/baseball?
I'm sure one gets to make a lot more mistakes while playing the latter two games than while surfing, to end up dead.

Study: Surfing Safer Than Soccer, Basketball Yeah, sure. Maybe it is for those who like to sit way inside and play in the soup.
For others though....

Yeah, right
Do you have any idea how many surfers have been injured/killed by sharks? At least you don't find these guys on the soccer field or basketball court.
