Interested in learning how to surf, then Surfing Illustrated: A Visual Guide to Wave Riding is the book for you. Author John Robison uses hundreds of pictures -- comical, cartoon-like drawings--to clearly illustrate every aspect of surfing: wave dynamics, riding techniques, etiquette, logistics and more. This entertaining, easy-to-understand (e.g. Surfing for Dummies) visual presentation makes it easy for you to pick up the techniques and use them on the waves.
Robison covers every aspect of the sport, from paddling out through the surf zone, catching and riding that first wave to nose riding, acrobatics, shortboard riding and equipment repairs.
