Books About Surfing


It might be more appropriate to discuss The Callahan Phenomenon in the new thread titled Content Creators and Surf Travel. I think it will be an interesting discussion about the ethics of exposing lesser-known surf spots.

Thank You - maybe I should write a book about it.
surfEXPLORE: How to Sell Black Cats to Witches in Spite of Your Haters and Make a Fortune Doing It
Now taking pre-orders!

I have actually discussed this topic at least 4, 672 times previously, but would be happy to do so yet again for either Stu or Steve in a formal interview context.
The topic IS addressed quite a few times in my book, surfEXPLORE: Discovering New Surfing Locations Worldwide, now available for preorder on The Nile, Amazon and many other sites worldwide


…ummmm
;)

Thanks for all your preorders, my marketing campaign appears to be extremely effective!

And back to Number#3 today.
The volume of orders on all those books listed must be fairly low at this point to see such fluctuations.
Anyway, I'll sleep better knowing that from now on every time you see a black cat you'll think of me.


He’s dropped to 4.
That How To Wing Foil book is really giving him a hiding.

Happy to see so many folks following the fluctuations of surfEXPLORE: Discovering New Surfing Locations Worldwide on the Amazon New Releases in Surfing chart -
It is gratifying to see so many of me new best mates emotionally invested in The Book and following every twitch and turn of the progress towards the physical release at the end of October -
Let's get a few more Australian pre-orders and push that Wing Foil book down where it belongs!

Hey gang, I've recently gotten into surfing and I am looking to find a good book or two that will introduce me to this world a little better.
It doesn't really matter what genre it is, I'm just keen for any insight into the beautiful and often mystical world of surfing.
Cheers!
