Surf Mats

I thought it would be a good time to revisit the roots of this blog

If you haven't read or reread Ken McKnights's piece on All About Surf

Matafesto - The Delicate Wind

now would be a good time

(nice pieces on Dale, Greg Deets and others at All About Surf as well)

The other landmark piece of surfmat journalism is Paul Gross' article

"Inflatable Dreams" in the Surfers Journal.

I don't believe that is available online at present.

There is a wealth of interesting articles at

My Paipo Boards

So you might try surfing over there.

The other sites I would highly recommend are

Surf Matters

Surf Matz

UK Mat Surfers

Hope you all had a nice holiday
