highly recommended

Very well written, detailed book

This book is the most detailed guide I've found for surfing. The Surf Diva guide is also very good but not as detailed and informative as this book. I highly recommend it.

Amazing Book

I have read this book, time and again and in my opinion contrary to what the title suggests this book is equally useful for guys as well as girls.

Well written, nice pictures and comments from pro surfers. It does deal with some of girl specific issues which either guys can ignore or appreciate.

It will definitely be useful for a beginner or heck even an intermediate surfer.

Great for anyone learning to surf, guys as well

I bought this book for my 11 yr old daughter who started surfing with me a couple of years ago. When she was finished, I read this book to see how it was. It was one of the best surf books I ever read. I think that the fact that it was geared towards women by a women, it made it more relaxed and fun. We (men) tend to get to serious and lose the point of it. Anyway, Louise (the author) was playful as well as insightful. You can tell by this book that Louise really loves surfing and her whole souful lifestyle. Her kind and warm personality shown through by her writing.
I would highly reccogmend this book to anyone who wants to learn how to surf or just be part of the relaxed surf culture.

P.S. I bought a copy for myself and refer to it all the time. Great job Louise. I am now a big fan of yours. Aloha

Great book for begginers

I'm 30 years old female and new to surfing i bought this book before i started my first surf lesson and really help me a lot. This a great book,
i seriously recommend it for begginers any age, is very well detailed and many helpfull tips..
If you get this book you wont regret it.

I wish I had this book when I started surfing!

this is an excellent book for surfers of any level, but focuses on beginners. There's a great history of women in surfing and profiles of today's up and comers. The book is well written and well designed, there are great photographs throughout. I wish I would have had this book when I started surfing, I had to learn the hard way! It's great to see the women of surfing getting the attention they deserve.
