Have you always thought surfing looks like so much fun but lacked the confidence to try it? Do you dream of having sun-bleached hair and surf-toned arms? Maybe you'd like to join those surfers you watch from the comfort of your beach towel? With women's surfing booming as never before, now is the perfect time to grab a board and get out there! If you're a girl who longs to mix it up with the boys in the surf, carve graceful lines across the face of a wave, and feel the exhilaration of surfing, this book is for you. Surf's Up has it all, including - what to look for when buying a surfboard
- how to paddle out, catch waves, stand up, and turn your board
- a colorful history of women's surfing, from Gidget to Beachley
- where to find North America's dream surfing spots Writing with the passion that comes from living the surfing life for more than fifteen years, Louise Southerden brings her love of surfing to every page, offering a glimpse of surfing subculture, surf lingo, the rules of the waves, and helpful tips from other surfer girls who have survived the learning-to-surf journey. Surf's Up is encouraging and empowering: a book no surfer girl should be without!
