I knew people surfed the great lakes but I didn't know they would go out in winter until I visited a site called Unsalted. I did a little blurb about them on my
Oahu4u.com
site when was living in Hawaii. I have a few pictures and some videos of great lakes surfing Here

That is awesome! I've seen some things on PBS about surfing the Great Lakes but they focused on activity around Chicago - in the winter!!

Thanks for featuring this Kekoa!

When I took this last year, I said that come September 24th, 2007 I'd be out there. The waves didn't cooperate, but my son and I have been out a few times on our new board and the Lake Michigan surfing season is upon us.

It's pretty cool to see this photo on your excellent site next to a ripping shot from Oahu!!!

I just got back from Hawaii and tried surfing for the first time ever at Hale'iwa on the North Shore.

I'm definitely gonna buy a longboard and hit the Great Lakes surf!!!
