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. [actual citation needed]
While doing this he says "Radical", "Gnarly", and "Hang loose" which are commonly used among surfers.

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 ~~~~)
Maybe 2061 could get a tony-hawk spin off... --Lupo (talk) 06:58, 19 September 2024 (UTC) Add comment
