Stoked! A history of surf culture
 

Stoked! A history of surf culture

Drew Kampion traces the evolution of modern beach culture and the challenging, beautiful sport that gave rise to it. From its Polynesian origins and the early days of Duke Kahanamoku's beach boys, to the California-style surfing cult that exploded in the 1960's, to the international pro circuits and radical big wave contests of today. Stoked tells the compelling story that has inspired entire genres of music, movies, fashion and art. This revised second edition has updated text and new photographs. Stoked is the lavishly illustrated history of the legends and the places, the artifacts and the trends, that continue to give surf culture its universal allure and appeal.

Size: 10.5 x 10.5 in.

Surf Movie Tonite
 

Surf Movie Tonite

Surf Movie Poster Art 1957 - 2004
By Matt Warsaw

Surf movies have always attracted a certain kind of audience: passionate, committed, and quite often stoned. Their posters began as colorful notices stapled onto beachside telephone poles in the early fifties. Four decades later, surf expert Matt Warshaw brings to wave-riders everywhere this singular collection of over 140 rare posters, covering everything from "Endless Summer" to "Step Into Liquid," from the bubbly optimism of Gidget to the psychedelic inventiveness of "Pacific Vibrations." Including ticket stubs, photos of old-time premieres, and a side-splitting history of the surf movie, Surf Movie Tonite! brilliantly illustrates the intersection of beach and film culture. Size: 9 x 12 in. Hardback - 144 pages
