On May 1, celebrate International Bodysurfing Day
On May 1, it’s time to celebrate International Bodysurfing Day (IBSD). After all, the art of riding waves without a buoyant watercraft dates as far back as 2,000 B.C. and predates board riding. The initiative was soft-launched in 2020 by John P. Murphy, an American writer and teacher who lives in Puerto Escondido, Mexico.
