Synopsis"In this crowded world, the surfer can still seek and find the perfect day, the perfect wave, to be alone with the surf and his thoughts." The editorial signoff to Surfer magazine's very first issue--which was distributed from the back of a Volkswagen van in 1960--still defines a surfer's dream 40 years later. And Surfer magazine is still delivering that dream in monthly installments of the most cutting-edge surfing photographs and journalism printed anywhere. The Perfect Day celebrates 40 years of breaking waves with a collection of the finest from Surfer's famed archives. Its colorful pages are packed with the stunning images that have captured surfing's biggest moments and the compelling articles that have provided the voice for generations of surfers in search of the perfect day and the perfect wave.

Surfing described to the common person.
A great representation of the contemporary sport of Surfing. It is very detailed and includes great pictures of important surfers that influenced the sport. I surfed from 1962- 1980, the golden years. The book illuminates the culture, attitude, and influences that encompassed that era. It was a great time to be in Southern California, or any coast for that matter. Commercialization took over. The style of clothes,the lingo, the values, the appreciation of our Mother Ocean all fell to the wayside, in search to the all mighty $. Too bad. This book at least holds true to the essence of what surfing is all about, communing with Nature at it's most intimate level...catching a wave.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
