The Surfer’s Journal, Volume 33 No. 1

- Dimensions: 9" x 11"

- The Surfer's Journal is a bi-monthy periodical for surf enthusiasts and all who appreciate the timeless, wild beauty of the sea. It’s an independent take on the surfing experience with limited advertising, making each 140-page issue almost entirely editorial. It delves into topics that get little attention elsewhere, covering travel adventures, surfboard design, profiles of surfing’s most colorful subjects, and choice surf photography.

- On the cover of Volume 33 No 1: Harry Bryant leaves one of his distinctive animal tracks in North Africa. Photograph by Thomas Robinson.

- Other features in the issue include an arbiter’s subjective ranking of 100 postmodern wave riders, a pop-cultural misappropriation of surfing, and the obsessive nature of noseriding. We also talk survival with a seasoned Pacific Northwest local, ride full-speed with a contemporary shredder, and browse a prolific graffiti writer’s flicks. Imagery ranges from paradisiacal Earthly wonders to the Wild West-era North Shore, and more.
