10 surf books to keep you stoked during winter months

Surf Tide — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 21:47:58 +0000

We officially entered British daylight savings time today, meaning it now gets dark at 5.30pm and the nights will close in until the end of December. Unfortunately this means less time in the water, but on the bright side it means more time for other activities such as reading.

The list below is a small selection of some of the fiction and non-fiction novels/biographies that I have bought over the few years (and by no means exhaustive). So if you find yourself with a spare few moments then get your head into one of the books on the list below.

If you’ve got any suggestions then please feel free to leave a comment.

Eddie Would Go: The Story of Eddie Aikau, Hawaiian Hero and Pioneer of Big Wave Surfing

Stealing the Wave: The Epic Struggle Between Ken Bradshaw and Mark Foo

DA Bull: Life over the Edge

Nat’s Nat and That’s That: A Surfing Legend

Soul Surfer: A True Story of Faith, Family and Fighting to Get Back on the Board

Riding the Magic Carpet: A Surfer’s Odyssey to Find the Perfect Wave

West of Jesus: Surfing, Science, and the Origins of Belief

Big Drop: Classic Big Wave Surfing

Surf Nation: In Search of the Fast Lefts and Hollow Rights of Britain and Ireland

In need of some new surf literature and something to keep me company in the evenings when I am down in Newquay later this week (for my BSA Surf Instructor and Lifeguard course) I invested in a few new books (see below) courtesy of Amazon.

I’ll let you know what they were like when I’ve finished them :)
