Malibu Surfer Heading Back to North Korea | Locals are “unstoppable”
There’s lot of potentially deadly surf breaks to surf in this world as well as wild war torn counties that you’d think twice of before visiting. One of the most bizarre places to travel for waves would have to be North Korea. Malibu surfer Cliff Graham went last year and is returning again in a few weeks to spread the good word to the repressed North Korean locals.
“Members of the nonprofit, public-spirited group, along with Graham, will be in the rogue state again from July 28 to August 11 to strengthen the relationships they forged with the North Korean travel guides that showed them around the reclusive country’s largest city, Pyongyang, last year.
In the nation’s capital, Graham said his group saw North Koreans carrying out their daily lives. They also saw skate parks, a ski resort and an indoor water ride — all while under the watchful eyes of the local guides.
The Surfing the Nation crew got the chance to build bonds with their guides while teaching them one of the hippest sports around at Majon Beach, a resort area.”
