by Clifton Evers (Author)
This complex look at surf culture explores its inherent masculinity, as well as the violence, racism, misogyny, turf wars, and homophobia that are as much a part of the sport as ocean swells. This analysis reveals the unwritten codes that rule all aspects of a surfer's life - from body image and national identity to politics and friendship.
