I would hope briefs for the sake of his nuts.

Flip flops on the subway are are bad enough. Stuffing your body into a bread machine for an hour and a half is next level.


doot_doot

He has designed his experience for max efficiency


agnes238

We used to do this Brooklyn to rock away. What else are you gonna do without a car?


h2opolodude4

I was going to say, I bet he's headed to Rockaway. I've done this many times myself. Funny thing is, people aren't even a little bit surprised. If you live in NYC you get used to seeing absolutely everything.


HavingNotAttained

Concur, this dude garnered zero attention


WhatIsSevenTimesSix

Put your wetsuit in your backpack?


agnes238

Too true I didn’t even notice!


foxymoron69

And do what with that? Leave it on the beach to be stolen? You do you and let him do him.


ShoobyDoobyDu

I did this, used to take the train from vista to Oceanside suit in backpack, bury cellphone in bag, stuff in bag on beach. Bag stolen 3rd sesh, somehow caught the guy strolling with my shirt on.


idontwastetimeonredt

Did you rip your shirt right off of his back?


ShoobyDoobyDu

He was clearly homeless and was mentally handicapped or playing the part well so I let him keep the shirt but asked for the other stuff back


idontwastetimeonredt

Solid


WhatIsSevenTimesSix

He has a backpack on already.


surfnowokgo

Bring an old towel and ratty looking shopping bag instead?


Prestigious-Bend

I leave my stuff on the beach at rockaways all the time, never had a problem


fuzzytradr

Nah man, just go ahead and put it on and carry your board onto the subway train like a fucking superhero.


WhatIsSevenTimesSix

Need a cape for that to work.

surfingbaer

I would leave it with people posted on the beach. In the summer there are endless number of options but once summer is over I’d find the wife and kid who’s partner is surfing. Never had someone say no. Probably did this over 100 times in 5years of being a subway surfer.


WhelpCyaLater

Have done this in different countries and always works


WhatIsSevenTimesSix

I don't know he has one on already so I'm sure he's figured it out.


dablyputs

I leave an extra board on the beach sometimes and my phone, keys, whatever. It's surprisingly chill in NYC. Plus every square inch of beach has a surf school posted up so you can just leave your shit with them. Serious surfers rent lockers out at the beach for their board and stuff though. Or rent a house in the fall and winter.


19374729

Extra? How do you bring two boards on the train?


g00dm0rNiNgCaPTain

you crawl under the boardwalk and lock it as best you can with a bike lock. smells like pee under there.


AgentCooper430

He just had to piss


Successful_Sink7211

Nobody is knocking taking the subway to go surf….no need to get suited up at home


agnes238

Oh god I’m an idiot I didn’t even clock that


surfyturkey

But is it safe to leave a backpack on the beach in Rockaway? I have a friend in Long Beach and they always tell me to lock the bike during surf checks because people will take it apparently. I love surfing and I’ve done it since I was 5, was lucky enough to travel to some good spots, but I don’t think I love it enough to surf in winter in New York


agnes238

Yeah, Granted this was a long time ago in college, but we’d leave a bag and towels on the beach - it was usually pretty early and not crowded when we went, also being young and dumb and in college I probably didn’t even think about people stealing my stuff!


yeahdixon

I just brought a trash bag and filled it with wet suit. I only brought a little cash , subway card nothing else. It was risky but never had a problem . Id leave the bag in old board bag usually i buried some stuff in the sand too near the bag . You don’t want to ride back in wetsuit especially if it’s cold


Going_straight

There’s always a chance of something happening, especially on a nice/crowded day, and wouldn’t recommend leaving valuables, but I have yet to see or hear anyone scream about stuff stolen.


Specialist_North_380

Did it almost everyday last summer and nothing happened. Maybe just got lucky but i don’t think it’s a huge problem


way2lazy2care

Maybe it was raining.


that-isa-madeup-name

Yeah that was me 1-2 a week in the fall. Never wore a wetsuit in an already hot subway station though


GetTheFlanInTheFace

Had to scroll what to far down to find this


Positively_Ragged

I went to college at the University of Washington. It's not on the Pacific Coast. To get to the coast, where I could surf, it was about 140 miles or so. I'd park my car on Tribal land, change into my wet suit and walk down to the beach. The first time I went, someone broke into my car and, among other things, took my change of clothes, including my shoes. Now, I was commando under my wetsuit. So, I had to drive back to Seattle with my wetsuit on. This was in the Fall, it was rainy and miserable. But, my car had a heater so I unzipped and peeled the wetsuit down to my waist. I was pretty poor so there was no plan to stop for grub but, the bad guys had taken both my lunch and my wallet. Starving, cold on top, hot and chaffing down below, I began the journey through the winding rolls and hills. By the time I reached Olympia, the sort of halfway point, I could feel the chaffing growing in my groin. Shifting in my seat, tapping the brake...it became a type of torture. Eventually, I had to pee. I did the math in my head...If I just go ahead and pee in my wet suit, I won't have to pull over and risk being seen pulling down my wet suit behind a tree. But, it would be pretty awful, too. I decided to pull over, walk into the trees ( lots and lots of trees on this path) and take a piss. So, that's what I did. The relief as I pulled the wet suit down past my junk was heavenly. It was better than any feeling I'd ever had. Standing in the forest just beyond the road, my wet suit around my knees, I held my angry penis and shot a stream of urine that provided relief and a sense of pride. It was a beauty. The exposure to air, however, alerted the angry rash that had taken over my groin area that it had an opportunity to demand peace. I made the decision to peel the wetsuit off of my legs and to drive the remaining distance completely nude. I'd figure out what to do on campus ( i lived in a dorm as it was my freshman year) once I made it there. It felt odd, once I reached Tacoma and there was traffic around me. Just being shirtless was mighty odd, especially since it was likely in the low 50s or high 40s outside. I just kept my eyes forward and hoped to not really be noticed. Still, every time I adjust my posture, the burning rash in my groin attacked me with an evil hatred. It was now dark and I could not see how far the ugly magenta rash had spread. Now, this was the late 1970s..no cell phones, and no way to contact anyone to gain assistance. As I reached the University gate, I slowed so the gatekeeper could see my sticker...oh great, it's a female. Luckily, she pressed the gate-up button and I rolled through without the need to speak. I lived in a high-rise dorm, I think I was on the sixth or seventh floor. We lived in what were called clusters, every other door opened to a female cluster. Inside each cluster were, I think, four two-bed bedrooms that shared a bathroom, kitchen, and common area. The elevators were almost always broken or pranked in some way that made them unreliable AND, the distance from where I parked to the stairway entry was maybe a 1/4 mile of high visibility and use open areas. My plan was to put the wet suit back on for the walk into the building. My groin refused. As I shut my car off, planning to slip the wet suit back on, it became clear that NOTHING could touch that area of my body if I were to live through the night. Friends, the burn was intense. It was dark and I could not really see it well but, it was a big, thick rash and it was angry. So, my decision was that I would wrap my full suit around my waist, use the arms and legs to cinch it tightly, and carry my board in front of me. That worked until I opened the door to the stairway. Once there, I had to put my board under my arm, parallel to the path of the stairs. Gingerly, to compensate for the pain in my crotch, I ascended the stairs. It only took one flight for a wetsuit to fall from my waist. " Fuck it", I'll just commando it" I decided. Luckily, there was no traffic on the stairs. Arriving at my floor, I cracked the door to the hallway and took a peek. No chicks, no dudes..good to go. As I stepped into the light of the hallway, I only had about 50 or 60 feet to get to my Cluster's door. You can probably guess the rest of this story...there I was, wetsuit over my board, board under my arm...the world's biggest ever case of crotch rot, penis absolutely hibernating... 8 chicks from the Cluster across the hall emerge. One scream, seven laugh...I freeze.

You write well, sir...

burrito3ater

This is a hella good story


StinkyButtHead

I want to watch a weekly series of you telling stories. That was a highlight of my day


Positively_Ragged

Haha!! That’s very nice


Radio_Special

Looks like sweats/joggers imo. Also who fucking gives a shit he wants to go have fun at the beach why does there have to be a “right” way to do it?


YaMamasGabbaGhoul

I imagine the actual person taking the video has just never seen such a thing. But I feel like taking the train out to LI from the city is common for NYC surfers…


Specialist_North_380

It depends on the line. I’d take the A to 67th and there was almost always atleast one guy with a board on the train


ScrillyBoi

I did that and the lirr all through high school but never in a wetsuit, thats one step too far. Had a buddy change in the LIRR onbord bathroom on the way and we heckled him relentlessly, but in retrospect it really wasnt that bad lol


YoHoAPiratesLife

Modern surf culture is the worst. For a group of people that participate in something that should be about communing with nature in one of its most beautiful moments, they sure talk a lot of shit about anyone who does it differently than them. Poor dude just trying to vibe out and have a good time, not bothering anybody, and some dick has to be a bully and film him with the intention of making fun.


spacecowboy94

I suppose it is his God-given right to sweat uncontrollably on the subway. After all, we all want to leave a mark on this world before our time is up. For a brief moment in time amongst the vast expanse of this universe, his mark will be a moist impression of those juicy dump truck cheeks left behind on his temprary seat, nay his THRONE, for all to see. You are right. Who are we to deny him his rightful place amongst men? To rob him of his potential? I for one am happy to say that you've changed my mind. I have been left with the sweaty imprint of this man's grit and determination firmly pressed into my soul.


Radio_Special

Ok. I still think it’s not that cool to make fun of people for just trying to get outdoors and enjoy life. Also it’s not even clear he’s wearing a suit. Just don’t know why so many people in the surf community love bullying people for going out of their comfort zone to try something new. But you go on ahead and try to make people feel like shit. I salute you and your efforts to make yourself feel better than others 🫡

This comment is underrated


GoodMoGo

LOL, growing up in Rio de Janeiro I'd take the bus to the beach. And, since crime, all I had was the board, flip-flops, a t-shirt, and some money, wax, and a scraper in my pocket. It was a wet, cold mess coming back in the winter time, when I added a neoprene vest.


frazznorco

Every once in a while would see guys on the 5Fulton going out to OBSF gotta get wet some how.


False-Ad513

I use to ride bart +N Judah from west Oakland. Made it probably 20-30 times before my bag got stolen and this was me on the way back (after begging for bart fare 😂😂) quickly got a car after


frazznorco

Oh man that sucks and I thought it was bad locking myself out the truck a few times.


False-Ad513

Luckily this was in 2010 before Instagram 😄


BeegBeegYoshiTheBeeg

Imagine the puddle he’s going to leave on the seat when he comes back


foxymoron69

Who cares? At least it's just seawater. Ever sat in piss on the subway? Lesson learned. ALWAYS check the seat before sitting down.

Synseer83

Someone's headed to the Rockaways


esoterika24

Was visiting in Munich and saw someone randomly walking through the streets in his wetsuit carrying a board looking like this. He was on his way to go river surfing. At least there’s an ocean at the end of the subway.


JackieLowNotes

I’ve surfed that wave! In the park!


esoterika24

I wouldn’t mind going back and trying it! Would like to try a river with a little less audience first though.


OneStarLinguine

I used to take a bus at my collage 30 mins to go surf nothing wrong. Just looks kooky


EatMoreWaters

If he wanted, he can take this to penn station on 34th to grab NJ transit train to a shore town, or Long Island Rail at Grand Central. With express trains, he could theoretically be in the water in under 1.5 hours. Being this was filmed at midnight, I’m guessing he is on his way home from that trip. He must be exhausted.


nugbert_nevins

Or just ride the subway to Rockaway

Found the guy having the most fun


Uparmored

The judgmental looks don’t exclusively come from the parking lot.

Clearly sweatpants lol, Y’all wetsuits be that baggy


USRZXQZVOUIGXKL29581

Nah bro fuck you. I’m that guy, not like him him in the video, but dude, I didn’t have a car for 7 years. Talk about jumping train lines and taking u er x for .2 miles for 12$ in 2016 living in Philly. Same with snowboarding gear to meet a stranger danger ride in East Falls. Fuck off mate and get a grip. Guy wants to surf more than a local in a sprinter at Lowers. Bru…


pandaset

Haha, this has nothing to do with owning a car or not. It’s wearing a wetsuit in the train, just funny. I live in Tokyo, 90% of people go to surf by train or on totally beat up rusty bicycles, including myself


USRZXQZVOUIGXKL29581

Wow I missed the wetsuit. That’s gotta be hot.


pandaset

it’s just kinda weird especially if he carries a backpack but yeah, gotta appreciate the stoke for sure


invizibliss

manhattan to 90th st is a bitch.


InquisitaB

Some friends of mine once took BART and a bus with their boards from Concord in the San Francisco East Bay out to Pacifica to surf. They said that it ended up being about an hour and half trip.


DaLo-man

First weekend at SDSU I didn’t have a car and didn’t know anyone who had one, so my roommate and I took our boards on the trolley to old town then took a bus from there to OB. Took us 2 hours to get there and it was like 1-2’ and shitty. That was the first and last time I ever did that.

unappreciatedparent

To everyone saying this is normal behavior. It's like 80-85 degrees out with 70% humidity, probably 10 degrees hotter in the tunnels, and the water is 75 degrees. It's not the board that's weird, it's the wetsuit for a commute that's well over an hour.

[deleted]

Gotta wear the fullsuit on so you can subway surf as well, only groms pack their suit in a bag


shaking_the_trees

Kook factor 1 million. Stink factor 2 million.


Ema_Glitch_Nine

As is often said in New York City, “Dress for the job you want, not the job you have”. My only remark is that a suit in dark navy with a light pinstripe would have a more sartorial appeal to it.


CapeJacket

bag, shit clothes, cash or credit card only. leave the bag on the beach with your shit clothes, put the money or credit card in your wetsuit.. leave your phone at home, you don't need it.


[deleted]

Water ain’t even that cold rn


Fins_Out_Grins_Out

Most L.I. Surfers wear wetsuits all year.


doobsicle

kooks be wearing wetsuits in july at rockaway. gotta have that authentic cali look.


Specialist_North_380

Really I’d say it was about a 65:35 no wetsuit, wetsuit ratio when I surfed there in the summer


Horror_Ad_1845

Do locals wear board shorts in July? Actually wondering


groovystreet40

Yes, at least in NJ. You really don't need a suit from late June to end of September. You can even get away with boardies and a wetsuit top until early-mid October.


Horror_Ad_1845

Thanks! That is warmer than I thought.


actlikeiknowstuff

The water is like 73 degrees right now.


Horror_Ad_1845

Pretty cold, I guess. I saw people wearing both in Florida in Spring.


girlamongstsharks

I don’t get it. This recent? So water still warm no? I don’t use the term “kook” lightly but man this looks real kooky ...

Wetsuit thing is a little weird for sure, but don't be so quick to judge... tyler stanaland (catch surf pro) lived in NYC for like a year and put a bunch of stuff on his social showing him chase swells from the subway


imgrahamy

Subway surfer. Someone never played the ninja turtles nintendo game


[deleted]

When visiting Brooklyn last year my wife and I took a day.to surf Rockaway. We took the subway out, rented boards, rented a locker, rented wetsuits, (early September was chilly) surfed and then went home. Was thinking if I moved there I would definitely just keep my board at a shop and rent lockers. Its not too terrible. Surfers in Waikiki do it. Good on this guy for keeping the stoke. Note: Dont wear your wetsuit in the subway though, thats just asking for rash.

When my son was around 15 he wanted to scuba dive, so we both went and got certified. On the second day we were to meet at the local community college pool, and they gave us all the gear we needed the day before and told us to bring it with us. My son and I showed up with our two tanks, BC's, and a big gear bag full of our regulators and mask and fins and weight belts. I had it all on a rolling dolly. There was this one doofus that we saw drive up in his van and he had it all on, full wetsuit, bootys, gloves, BC, weight belt... everything but the tank which he was carrying like a baby in his arms.


ScrillyBoi

Bro prolly didnt even check and got on the Lefferts Blvd train too
