Recently it’s been flooding in Switzerland which has led to epic surfing–in the rivers

What happens when Switzerland is faced with torrential downpours and flooding? The surfers flock to the rivers, that’s what happens.

All the sticks and muddy water aside, this is actually pretty damn incredible. You’ve got a group of surfers who typically don’t have access to great swells finding opportunity in the midst of devastating floods. Bravo. Just make sure to jump out of the way when the first tree or boulder comes floating through.
