In the heart of Dixieland lies a fabulous state known as Alabama, or AL for short. Now, you might scratch your head and think, "Surfing? In Alabama?" But trust me, it's more common than you might think. The kids here are full of spunk, grit and a whole lot of courage. They are as wild and free as the rolling waves they ride on. Meet Bama Bob, a chubby little fellow with a heart bigger than his belly. He's an Alabama local, a surfing legend among the kids, and has a laugh that could shake the pecans right off the trees. Bob absolutely loves surfing; he says it feels like riding a magic carpet, only wetter. He's got a surfboard that's as colorful as a rainbow gumdrop, and he zips around the water as if he were a sea creature born with a board under his feet. But it's not only about the surf for these Alabama kids. They've got a sense of camaraderie that's as strong as the toughest surf wax. They help each other wax their boards, they share their secret surfing spots, and they always stick around to watch each other's epic wipeouts, followed by thunderous laughter of course. Bama Bob and his surfing squad are a testament to the fact that you don't need an ocean in your backyard to ride the waves. So, next time you find yourself in the heart of Dixieland, head to the nearest water body, you might just find a group of Alabama kids, led by Bama Bob, ready to surf the day away!
