Description
Whether it’s a gift to a friend or to yourself, a book remains a wonderful choice. Here at Glide Surf Shop, we’ve got a small range of books to keep you occupied when the surf’s flat or it’s too dark to surf.
“The Surfing Tribe” tells the full story of the history of surfing in Britain. It explains how a quirky seaside pastime transformed itself over seven decades into a phenomenally popular sport and lifestyle. From Newquay to Newcastle and from Jersey to Swansea, the origins of Britain’s separate surfing tribes are revealed and all the top British surfers from the various eras are profiled. The book also charts the evolution of British surfboards, and looks back at the films and magazines that have portrayed British surfing over the decades.
