“Simms estimated that during the pandemic, the number of surfers in California has doubled from 1 million to nearly 2 million.

Simms encourages all surfers, those who picked up the hobby during the pandemic and multiyear pros, to wear helmets, which may not prevent all concussions, but they can help protect surfers when they hit sand, a reef or the board itself.”
