In this comic, Beret Guy is doing tectonic surfing. This seems to be surfing on tectonic plates, which move very slowly. ^{[citation needed]} He seems to be moving at about 4-5 cm/year which would put him on one of the moderately fast plates. ^{[citation needed]}

Where is the speed Beret Guy's moving at coming from? It looks to me like he moved about half his own height in 20 years so assuming he's 6 ft: 36in/20year gives 4.57 cm/year 7 cm/year for his speed seems high and 11 seems ridiculous. 172.71.159.45 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
