Cold
Water Souls: In Search of Surfings Cold Water Pioneers (Footprint)
by Chris Nelson
Paperback from Footprint Handbooks
ISBN: 1906098751
Cold
Water Souls is the ultimate journey of discovery, tracking down the wave-riding
pioneers of the world's most inhospitable cold water environments. From
the wilds of Alaska to the frozen wastes of Nova Scotia, and from Scotland's
storm-lashed north shore to the black volcanic boulder points of Iceland,
this book is a fascinating exploration of some of the planet's most beautiful
and frigid surfing locations and the surfers who call these waves home.
Cold Water Souls is a book of our times a blend of culture, history, travel,
memoir and characters coupled with stunning action and lifestyle photography,
never before seen archive imagery, all wrapped in a sleek design.
Surfers
have always been drawn to warmer climes, like a migratory instinct triggered
by dropping temperatures as winter draws in. The dream was always of the
perfect wave, chasing an Endless Summer around the globe armed only with
boardshorts and warm water wax. Over the last few years, pioneering souls
have begun to swim against the current, eschewing the increasingly crowded
tropics for a new search. In looking at the globe, they turned their attention
to some of the planet's chilliest locations.
Cold
Water Souls is the first book of its kind. It's a celebration of surfing's
final frontiers, where waves are ridden by hardy souls who have evolved
into small, tight knit communities with distinct genes and characteristics,
living the surfing lifestyle in some of the most unexpected locations.
This book is about the heart of surf culture, telling the story of each
destination through its waveriding community, exploring the local environment
and landscape and how it shapes their lifestyle and surfing experiences.
So pack away your boardshorts, the era of the Endless Summer is over, and
a whole new front of surf exploration has opened up, a world pioneered
by the Cold Water Souls. |
