Ok will not culturally appropriate surfing. Now you folks quit culturally appropriating baseball, basketball, football, golf.
Lord almighty, I guess we have to exclude all minorities from American football, soccer, hockey, olympic events, basketball, volleyball, but hey you can keep white folks from surfing.
Unqualified instructors teaching weak or non-swimmers to surf will result in increased injuries and drownings. Good job, Communists, it’s all going to plan.
Bay Area water is too cold anyway
So,now Surf Schools are ‘problematic’?
It’s like with that character on Seinfeld, asking;
“Why must there always be a problem?”
Doesn’t every culture have a soccer or football or hockey or polo variant?
Object: to get something across a field.
Sometimes it’s played with a goat’s head.
Sometimes with a human one.
Don’t forget electricity and running water.
So you linked to an article that has a paywall?
WTF?
Skeet Surfing training for ‘underserved’ community members. What could go wrong?
I had to leave a nightclub because a black man was playing the saxophone, it was just too much cultural appropriation for me, and don’t get me started on that Yo-Yo Ma guy playing the cello.
There are Bay area boarding schools for kiddies who are gifted surfers. I know a guy who got a scholarship to one at age 14. After high school, he got a surfing scholarship (yes, a surfing scholarship) to UC Berkley.
So, yes, they surf in San Fran.
I’m so pleased we have overbearing government entities insuring we can no longer exercise free will. These are the days I have long waited for.
Surfing going woke should be hilarious. And a tragedy.
Most places surfers travel for waves( if from the US or Australia) are minorities.It’s always been all inclusive.
I had no idea there were not for profit surf schools.
Don’t know whether to laugh or cry.
