From salty old surf legends to modern pro-surf stars to surfers from all walks of life -- writers musicians aid workers ethicists -- the common theme in all these surfers' lives is how their personal journeys have been shaped and informed by their experiences in the ocean.

Even dolphins and other sea creatures surf.' Vezen Wu scientist 'Just the feeling of the water on you diving and paddling duck-diving your first wave seeing a set come turning around and stroking into it that initial rush as you drop down the face the jolts of acceleration as you go through the manoeuvres - there's nothing like it.The only thing that actually comes close to riding waves is sex.' Mark Richards four-time world surfing champion 5% of author royalties from this book will be distributed to the following charities: Surf Aid International; Disabled Surfers Association; Life Rolls On; Surfers Healing; Surfrider Foundation
