Before entering the water, read it, often,

This review is from: Learn to Surf (Paperback)
Sit down and read it on a fine day overlooking the sea and the surf and you'll go back in the water understanding so much more - It really is that good, even for such a small volume. After reading three other books on how to learn, this is the one that is making sense of all the others. That, and Wingnut's Art of Longboarding DVD if you can find it.
The section on reading the water surface to identify rip currents I haven't seen described anywhere else... plenty of books explain the dangers of rips, but not how to find spot them on the water surface By all means buy some other step-by-step photo books, but get this one too

A must for a beginning surfer, more of a survival guide.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Learn to Surf (Paperback)
This is a great book to learn in depth about surfing, I have been surfing since I was 6 and I wish that I had a book to teach me all of the things that I learned the hard way. This book is a survival guide, It teaches you about waves, form and how to identify rip tides and other things that can end your day of surfing and your life. If you are considering learning to to surf, you can't afford not to read this book.

By A Customer
This review is from: Learn to Surf (Paperback)
An excellent book for the beginner surfer. It allows a reader to understand the concepts of a trying sport without getting bogged down in the jargon associated with it. It also provides essential information such as the surfer's etiquitte and the reading of waves. Get it and get out there!
