About 100 Best Surf Spots In The World: The World's Best
Product Description 100 Best Surf Spots in the World will include top surfing destinations ranging from Sunset Beach and the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia to Malibu, California and Oahu, Hawaii. Lesser-known destinations such as Metigama, Sri Lanka and Aviero, Northern Portugal take readers to every corner of the globe in search of the perfect wave. Other countries that make the list include: South Africa, France, England, Scotland, Ireland, Morocco, New Zealand, Japan, Indonesia, and Fiji. Each destination will include brilliant full-color photography of both the area and the breaks; location map, an introduction to the area, notes on the surf and why it ranked, a personal anecdote from the author while there, and a quick-reference chart including such items as skill level required, nerves needed, and surfable days. From the Back Cover 100 Best Surf Spots in the World explores the planet’s premier surfing playgrounds, from the hollow curls of Banzai Pipeline on the North Shore to the massive breaks of Teahupoo, Tahiti. International surfing legend Rod Sumpter reveals the world’s greatest reef breaks, left- and right-handers, point breaks, and beach breaks, and offers vital details about the characteristics of the waves and how to surf them. Take the big drop into Oahu’s Gas Chambers; fly the barrel at Hossegor, France; or ride Super Tubes, Tubes, and The Point in one ride at Jeffrey’s Bay, South Africa. This guide will take you to every corner of the globe in search of the perfect wave. Inside you’ll find: • full-color photographs of each location • first-hand descriptions of the areas with detailed analysis of the breaks • at-a-glance information on hazards, skill level required, and which boards to bring • quick-reference chart with the average swell size, air and water temperature, wetsuit requirements, and the average number of days per month you can charge the waves • suggestions for where to stay, how to find each break, and avoiding the crowd • and much more! About the Author Author, Rod Sumpter, has been to and photographed every destination in the book, basing his selections on over 30 years of traveling the globe in search of the perfect wave, competing for national and world surfing titles, and shooting and filming surfing events for publication and production. He has won multiple national and international surfing championships, placed top ten in the World Surfing Championships; acted as president of the English Surfing Federation, held a starring roll in the U.S. surfing film "The Endless Summer," and captured more surfing titles in his 30 years of worldwide competition than most surfers in the world alive today.
