The number of surfers in the New England area has increased drastically in the last decade, and this trend looks to continue in the near-future. However, due to cold-water conditions, limited surf breaks, and distance problems, many people in New England who are interested in learning to surf choose not to. Also, there are many New England surfers who will never get to experience the breaks of tropical locations such as Pipeline, etc. Therefore, this petition has been created in hopes of building a surf park at a centralized location in New England (in the case, 6 Flags New England). The goal is not only to introduce our amazing sport to everyone who is interested, but also to allow experienced NE surfers the opportunity to experience different breaks from around the world, without having to actually travel around the world to do so.

I really thought this might just be a niche idea that stayed between a few of us, but seeing 250 people back this is completely surreal. It is truly incredible to see how many of you want this as much as I do. You are the ones turning this from a simple thought into something that might actually get noticed.

I am honestly stunned by how many of you want to see this happen. It is clear that this dream belongs to all of you just as much as it does to me.

I am honestly stunned to see so many people signing this for a surf park. We are almost at one hundred names which feels like a huge milestone that you all built together. If you know anyone else who wants to see this happen please show them this page so we can finally hit that goal.

The surf scene up here is growing fast but the spots are crowded and freezing. Need more options.

My kids have been dying to learn but the ocean is just way to cold and rough for beginners. This would be perfect.

Finally! Surfing in the winter without a 5mil wetsuit would be a dream come true.
