by Salisbury University Students (1994)

1 folder (0.1 linear feet)

In 1994, Salisbury University student Fred Morgan collected folk material. His collection examines the folklore around body boarding in Ocean City, Md. In his paper, the student explains the rules by which body boarders must abide in the water such as to never steal someone else's wave. He also talks about the interactions between wave riders, the animosity shown by some older surfers (in Ocean City), and some of his encounters with "clean up sets".
