I've never tried to surf on Lake Michigan (but I hope to next time I'm home!) So far I've found a few good resources that I'm hoping will come in handy: <a href="http://greatlakessurfer.com/" rel="nofollow">Great Lakes Surfer</a> This is a nice surfing mag all about the great lakes. <a href="http://www.thirdcoastsurfshop.com/" rel="nofollow">Third Coast Surf Shop</a> In addition to lessons and gear sold in the midwest, these guys also have a forum for meeting up with other great lakes surfers. <a href="http://www.indygoofyfoot.com/Surf%27s%20up%20in%20Michigan,%20dude,%20so%20catch%20a%20wave%20-%208-14-03.htm" rel="nofollow">Indy Goofy Foot</a> Michigan Board shaper with some info. I'd check to see if there are any surf clubs near you to join. Be sure to let me know how the waves are! I'm hoping to find a used foam 9ft board for sale near where my parents live so I can teach my dad how to surf and catch a few small waves when I'm home in the spring. No ice surfing for me till I get a wetsuit thicker than 4.3! Good luck! Hi Shin,
