Summary Note |
From Gold Coast surf culture to the relationships of humans to the sea; from surf travel in Mexico to Taj Burrow's final campaign in Fiji - this collection features six authors writing about surf, and the ocean, in six very different ways. Their stories are reverential, energetic and mystical and between them cover thousands of kilometres of coastline, at home and away. |
