We have seen tarp surfing videos pop up in commercials and TV ads recently that indicate to us that the sport is still alive and kicking. The idea remains simple. If you do not live near the waves and even if you do, you can grab a skate board and a tarps and feel like your really surfing anywhere. A promo video for the tarp supplier Tarps Plus is now featuring a clip of tarps surfing.

The tarps are the typical light duty blue polyethylene that are used to cover many things. Blue tarps have become part of the American landscape and with another additional application like tarp surfing, we do not see it disappearing any time soon.
