The common perception to the rest of the world is

The common perception to the rest of the world is that surfing is an act of play, just some people who like riding waves for fun. And this is true, to an extent. I’m sure a majority of us started surfing for this same reason. But as many of us know, once you have some skin in the game and have been surfing for much of your life, it is so much more than just an act of play. In many ways, surfing transcends play and begins to work its way towards ritual. It becomes less of a hobby and more of a necessity, to the point where if we aren’t able to surf for more than a week or two, that gap can take a toll on our psychological health. There’s a sense that something is missing in our life.⁠

“Back in 2018, I wanted to travel with some surf

“Back in 2018, I wanted to travel with some surfing friends to a cold water surfing haven in the winter and take photos that would illustrate the freezing surf experience. I imagined peeling waves in the foreground of a rugged landscape, the falling snow and surfers in neoprene. All in monochrome. Many articles I found about winter surfing focused on people visiting a country to go surf, but not much was said about the area’s local surfers, their day-to-day stories and dedication to surfing. I felt this would be a great opportunity for me to capture and showcase the true essence of a cold water surfing community—and this became my goal.”⁠⁠⁠

Read @rosmanphoto’s latest article/photo series featuring cold water surfing in The Lofoten Islands, Norway, along with the crew of @arcticcoworkinglodge. It will make you want to wear your thicker wetsuit and jump in freezing waters immediately. ⁠⁠⁠

Meet the Ontario surf crew: the ones brave enough

Meet the Ontario surf crew: the ones brave enough to go surf when it’s freezing out. ⚡️ Would you go surf with them? Or you would rather stay out of the water, where it’s a bit warmer?⁠⠀
