I blame Brian Wilson. I really do! Brian Wilson was the fonder member and leading songwriter for the Beach Boys. His hypnotic music and idealized portrayal of California surfing lifestyles sent ‘good vibrations’ all over the land and down the decades. He single handedly created the myth and the community that is modern day California surfing. Sure we have the waves the weather and the Pacific washed beaches, but you have to grow into it. It isn’t something that you just show up to and jump in.
