Waves: Pro Surfers and Their World

Waves: Pro Surfers and Their World

A vibrant celebration of surfers in and out of the water from an award-winning photographerÂ

Professional photographer Thom Gilbert spent four years among surfer royalty at the top of their gameâ€”in Spain, New York, California, and Hawaiiâ€”with his camera trained not only on tiny figures disappearing in the waves, but also on the surfersâ€™ faces and bodies back on land. He returned from the beaches with intimate portraits of the worldâ€™s bestâ€”from the newest talent to the oldest and most reveredâ€”and also with dramatic action shots and revealing images of the culture around this sport and lifestyle. The book features not only 300 photographs, but some Q&As with, and hand-written contributions from, prominent figures in the scene. Ultimately, Waves is an ode to surfing and to the men and women who live it every day.Â
