Kayak Surfing - a grate book about surfing waves with a kayak

This is a grate book. I enjoyed very much reading the book. very well organized teaching of the wave surfing, staring from the very basic, and advancing to the most extreme surf tricks. beautiful inspiring pictures. I can definitely recommend this book for anyone interested in Kayak wave surfing. It is essential for the beginner, and grate for the advance surfers. Bill, Hope to see you in Israel some day. We have nice waves, warm water and losts of kayaks. You can plan on a trip to Israel next winter, when the water in UK is too could for paddling. ari.schkolnik@gmail.com [...] Ari

Feels like you're best friends with a great coach

This is the best kayak surfing book IMO, but buy the other one also. I particulary like the wisdom and insight of the "ten commandments", the "charc" and the discussion on dynamics. The frank discussion on physical limits and risks makes me feel like less of a coward. This book is a valuable reread also. I've bought a ton of books and would highly recommend also surf science and rolling a kayak by ken whiting. An "inner game" of kayak surfing would be nice, but since that hasn't been written yet, try the skiing book.

The surf kayaking book to get!

This is a great book. Not for someone that's never been in a boat, but from then on it helps to show you were you can go with surf kayaking. In time to have my skills up to doing everything in the book correctly.
