Aloha everyone,
This is the welcome post for Surfhive, a community created for surfers to share the stoke and surf the wave of web3.
I've been a surfer since I'm a little kid, and my whole life goes around surfing since then. It wasn't until I started working with crypto, around 2017, that I could finally have flexible working hours and surf much more often than the regular 9 to 5 jobs.
This freedom feels great, and I hope we can inspire more people to achieve that by helping surfers getting into web3.
Surfing helps my creativity and works as way to heal myself from the long working hours in front of the computer, countless meetings and the general stress that comes with crypto volatility.
The idea of creating #SurfHive came after I saw @xvlad talking about @skatehive during #NFTRio . I was totally stoked to see such a vibrant community and activity happening around skate and extreme sports.

I also happen to be involved in projects such as Surflimpo, a social currency created to incentivize taking care of our beaches and the ocean in general. And the NXF Bodyboard collective - a group of waterman that chase heavy waves known as #slabs. We launched an NFT collection earlier this year hoping to raise funds to protect our waves, discover new ones, and create content about it.
After NFT Rio, I met Vlad in Rio Blockchain Festival, we had few conversations on how we could make #SurfHive happen, and boom - here we are.
The combination of surf and web3 is really radical. Those two activities can transform one's lifestyle forever. I hope that in this community we can collaborate, onboard more surfers into web3 and share content about:
- How to onboard more surfers into web3?
- Awesome waves, barrels, airs, slabs, great performance surfing and shredding in general - we all love it.
- Classic surfing, longboards, stand-up-paddles;
- Bodyboard, bodysurf, skimboard, and any other sport related to the ocean;
- Surfing content, surfing lifestyle and culture (arts, music, fashion, spirituality...);
- Beach cleanups / how can we collaborate to take care of the oceans
- How we can leverage web3 to surf more often, enhance our wellbeing and creativity;
- Surf trips and surfing forecast;
- Projects that are related to Surf / Skate / Extreme sports and web3, such as @skatehive , gnars dao, nouns, surfguru , rabid , bitcoin beach, and others.
- How surfing makes you stoked?

Hello @luizhadad! This is @traciyork from the @ocd (Original Content Decentralized) curation team. We noticed you shared your first post here on Hive and introduced yourself to the community (with just a tiny bit of delay after joining the blockchain... in 2018...lol) - congratulations and welcome!
Speaking of community, we have many different ones here on the blockchain, devoted to all kinds of interests. Here's a link so you can check them all out - Hive Communities. Since you've already created the awesome looking SurfHive community, I'm guessing you're already pretty familiar with how these work, and can find ones you'd like to subscribe to without suggestions from me. 😁
Also, as Hive can sometimes be quite confusing, the newly launched Newbies Guide should be helpful to you, as it is a growing repository of useful and easy to understand posts about how the Hive ecosystem works. For instance, there's a post in the collection called 3 things Newbies should do in their first week on Hive that you might find helpful.
Please be aware that Hive is a bit different from other social media platforms since you are monetizing your blog, so it is important not to include content that you don't own without sources (and it shouldn't exceed 50% of the post). For more information, check this post - Why and How People Abuse and Plagiarise by hivewatchers.
If you have questions, feel free to hop into the OCD Discord server and we'll do our best to answer them, and again welcome to Hive!
Thanks for the welcoming vibes @traciyork ! Just read the 3 things newbies should do, and I will pass it forward :)
The 4 years delay is because when I joined Hive (steem back in the day), I used to manage the social media channels for @eosrio , and most activity was from that account.. my personal one ended up inactive.
Anyway, glad to be back and really stoked with such a great vibe in the Hive community! 🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
You're very welcome! And yeah, that totally makes sense and it's cool you found your way back to your personal account after all this time. Lately I don't post nearly as often as I'd like because I'm working with/managing a bunch of different projects, so I hear you. And yes, I agree - there's a wicked great vibe in the Hive community!
Welcome, stoked to see more extreme sports communities on Hive! Let's build together!
Yeah! @skatehive really stoked to see this collaboration happening! Let’s keep it up bro! Thanks for such a welcoming vibe 🌊🤙🏾
