I absolutely loved listening to this audiobook, especially hearing Gerry mention people I know and surf spots I'm familiar with.

Anyone who surfs, has an interest in surfing or is looking for inspiration will enjoy this book.

Great stories told by a great story teller. Lopez's humour shines through wrapped in a large dollop of surf wisdom.

You don't need to be a surfer to enjoy it, but if you are, you'll find yourself nodding and smiling as you appreciate that even the greatest go through the same emotions in the water as the rest of us.

I loved it!

Being I grew up surfing in the early 70s I could relate to many of of the stories and experiences that were expressed..along with the technical advancement of the equipment during that period

It is such a shame that Gerry Lopez did not narrate the book himself. It is such a personal story, it would have deepened the experience to have the author narrate. It was a distraction for the narrator to mispronounce words and to very obviously not be intimately connected to the content material. Bummer.

Epic story, Annoying narration

Loved hearing Gerry's stories, felt like I was there and time traveled back to his most memorable adventures, loved his take on life and its similarities to surfing.

Great story of surfings history
