I was wondering if he surfs? (or surfed)Seems like if he grew up in Hawaii there would be a good chance.
Thanks for that Benny. And by the way, for the nay sayers, that picture is from Sandy Beach, not Ocean City, MD.
i could have told ya that picture wasnt from Oc maryland. the water is too clean and bright, and we dont get wave shapes like that during the summer, usually
Hey American Swaylockers
From an outsiders perspective congratulations on your new SURFING President.
I think he will be a good choice for all of you.
Cheers

Howzit Mr. Clean, Interesting question since he grew up in Hawaii he may have at least tried to surf as a young boy. Now how do we find out the nswer? Aloha,Kokua
Our new president-elect has said that he did surf ‘‘a little’’ while growing up in Hawaii, but that
he was, in his words, ''a kook". He obviously picked up some bodysurfing skills though, that’s
a nice pic taken last summer.
Just back from HI … you know I learned to body surf before riding a board, probably will body surf till I’m very old. Still the purest form of the sport.
Here’s the link to the You Tube video showing President Obama body-surfing:
Well done guys.
I’m also impressed that the election went down with the minimum of propaganda being slung around here on sways.
Or maybe most surfers have similar alliances, so there was nothing to argue about
Will be an interesting time for sure
oh, and it looks like your coastline is in better hands!
Surely someone who grew up near the ocean and enjoys playing in it will have greater respect for it that someone who grew up surrounded by desert and oil fields.
No disrespect intended to Texans at all
You mean that you weren’t impressed by the pig headed cowboy we just got rid of? Good thing Bush wasn’t a shaper on Swaylock’s, don’t need no more trolls!
A relative of a friend was on court when Obama’s camp came through looking for an extra basketball player. He got to play and said the new pres had some pretty good moves.
Regarding Obama, his speech in Berlin was damn good. It convinced me that for a change, he wasn’t just the lesser of two evils. Compared to McCain’s very weak “Bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran”, there was simply no contest.
It is heartening to learn that the rest of the world is showing approval. Obama has inherited a deep hole and has quite a job ahead of him.
If I’m not mistaken, I think one of the Moonlight guys said on the other forum that Rusty met Obama at some dinner or rally and Rusty ended up shaping him a board that Moonlight glassed…
Licking black balls
What!? Explain yourself.
it is not really licking black balls of course…
but he IS trying to please mr president - for some obscure reason…
[i personally also prefer a board over sb licking my balls]
Even though the economic reality for Australia is probably negative if Obama adopts a more protectionist stance there is an enormous feeling of goodwill towards him here and a sense of a new beginning in terms of America’s foreign policy.

His bodysurfing is like his politics.
He goes left even when he should go right.
