HATERSomeone who does not understand that to be a surfer you must be a surfer. Surfing is a way of the spirit and life. surfers are those who are one with Kai and ther bourd. haters are the ones who are not but pretend to be and get angry when real surfers wont accept them. Surfers arnt makeing fun of these posers cuase we hate them we make fun to force them to stop being posers learn how how to surf force themselves to become one with Kai and their Bourd and become REAL surfers, till then they are nothing but smogbreather posers.
HATERSAll I see are definitions against other people who don't know how to surf and are trying to learn or don't surf - waves are not only for surfers! Why are surfers such haters? I thought it was all about zen and love and relaxing? What is this definition all about: "a soft foam board ridden on the belly by those who can't or won't stand up, generally hated by all surfers as they usually get in the road." So now I can't boogy board cause I might be hated by some dude that can hop on a big flat thing - get over yourselves!
People who diss others because they are jealous of them. surfers are sometimes haters on all non-surfers.
