Snaking is one of the darkest facest of surfing. Humans aren’t perfect and, occasionally, they’re not willing to share the ocean with people like them. We’ve got to have manners. One of the most important unwritten rules of surfing is absolutely explicit: “You shall not snake.” And there are only two options: to accept or to reject. But some surfers still don’t get it. Just because there are no signs in the water, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t wait for your turn, avoid being a wave hog, and drop in on everyone.
