About

Hey y’all, my name is Spencer and I love bodysurfing.

I also love reading and writing about bodysurfing, which is why I created this blog—to share knowledge about the ancient art of wave gliding (sin tabla).

I first developed a passion for bodysurfing while attending the University of San Diego, where I lived near the beach and would often bodysurf before morning classes. After graduating from USD in 2016, I moved to Bahia-Uvita, Costa Rica.

Since moving to Costa Rica, I have led several bodysurf retreats and published a number of articles about bodysurfing in various media outlets such as The Inertia, Surfd, Medium, Elephant Journal, and CREST.

I strive to portray bodysurfing as a simple and accessible form of ocean play—an elegant diversion, as Mark Cunningham calls it—that benefits mind, body, and soul. 

Ultimately, I hope to inspire you to incorporate bodysurfing into your life and join a growing collective of bodysurfers from around the world.
