Does anyone have a line on where to buy the vintage SURF RIDER Surf Mats? I checked online but cannot find any company that makes or distributes them? Thanks for the help!
You won’t have much luck finding one of those old school mats w/ a rope. Liability Issues.
Better instead to buy a high quality modern mat made by a guy who knows the ins and outs of surf mats.

Getting into surfmats is like joining a cult. They’ve got their own secret handshakes and rituals. I heard that live chickens and hamsters are involved, but that might just be a rumor. I know for a fact there’s an official haircut involved; you have to wear a bowl-cut mullet for the first 5 years.
At the advanced levels of membership they make you convert to riding a spoon, at which point you will ascend to half-man status.
You have been warned
Yep.Paul Gross at 4th gear flyer.He designs, builds and rides them.Been doing so for decades.Greenough rides them as well.
PRICELESS ! (All humor, has a basis in truth.)
If you really have your heart set on that style I found this on CL

I had one fifty years ago… tore the crap out of my nipples
Yeah, used to see stacks of them at the rental place in Avila.
How much you willing to pay?
