Surf Kentucky

Lexington, Kentucky is rather far from the ocean and quite a bit above sea level as well. It is really more known as horse country than surf country, but a new exercise center in its download is letting some feel like they’re catching the waves – even if they never get wet in the process.

Surfset Lexington offers fitness courses that are based on riding a surfboard, utilizing a device called a RipSurfer X. A 45-minute workout can reportedly burn 500 to 850 calories. Sessions cost around $20 but no trip to the beach is necessary!
