Amazing and insightful December 19, 2008
Very insightful, introspecting, based on Gerry's experiences. It is not a surf book, but a book about introspection and surf lore. Gerry is a great narrator.
More than a wave October 16, 2008
This book shows that, if you want, a wave can gives you more than water, salt and sand all over you.
Thanks you so much, Gerry.
All the best from Barcelona
The real deal September 6, 2008
This is a book about the soul of surfing. Gerry Lopez manages to describe a deep connection with the world's most beautiful and terrifying waves in a down to earth and truly humble manner. What a gentleman, what a role model for anyone who has anything more than a passing interest in surfing and what it takes to manage out of control situations with a calm and collected aspect.

Great book, more than a surf book June 29, 2008

I bought this book not fully knowing where it would take me. Having watched an interview with Gerry Lopez, his style peaked my interest, but a book, hummm. Anyways, this is an awesome book, I can't put it down.
Here's the reason. Yes, it's a great surf book. Great stories about cool surf! However, it's much more. This book takes you into Gerry Lopez's world. Gerry Lopez does a great job talking surf, but an equally great job talking about his thoughts, emotions and life lessons learned.
The book is a number of short stories that take you throughout the world. I think a good read is one where you feel like you are living it, you're there. While I will founder in my knee high surf, I will in some way enter into the "Green Room" with this book. With this book Gerry Lopez takes you there!!! A+
