Surf: Secrets and Curiosities

By VC Brothers

Discover the wildest, most surprising, and unknown side of surfing.

Did you know that some surfers have ridden waves alongside rivers of burning lava?

Or that there are urban surfing competitions held in canals and fountains after torrential rains?

This book takes you on a wave of fascinating stories, from impossible records to heroic feats, strange superstitions, surfboards made from human hair or recycled cigarette butts, and surfers who have challenged the ocean... and gravity itself.

You'll meet champions who fought off sharks, young prodigies riding giant waves before their teenage years, and legends who conquered barrels lasting more than ten seconds in remote places like Namibia and Fiji.

From the first 70-kilo finless board to Olympic surfing and bioluminescent waves, each page is a different ride: sometimes dazzling, sometimes terrifying, always thrilling.

Get ready to dive into a sea of astonishing facts, legendary achievements, and secrets that only the waves dare to tell.
