Some cool cats over on Jersey (the British Channel Islands located between France and the UK – now you know! Knowledge is power!) had gone a full 8 weeks without surf before coming up with the idea of tarp surfing. That is, surfing with a tarp. On a skateboard. In a parking lot.

Tarp surfing is hardly a new idea but then again no tarp-surfers that we know of made a really cool video to go along with it. The cinematography – dare we say it – is quite brilliant for a tarp-surfing video. You can check out more work by The Observatory here if you want, or you can buy your own giant blue tarp for $145 right here. Someone tell our editor-in-chief Alex that we want one of these for the office.
