Club Of The Waves
Surfing is many things. It is a professional sport, a lifestyle, a sub-culture, an art form, a popular pastime, a global marketing phenomenon, a mega-million-pound industry, a form of expression, an escape, a performance art that requires no audience, an inspiration, a style or fashion, a sophisticated society or an excuse to party, a theme on a 'aloha shirt' (Hawaiian shirt), a religion, a frame of mind, a career... and to some, it is everything!
Below and to the left are a number of features and articles on surfing, wetsuits, types of surfboards and lots of information to help you get into surfing... And please use our forum if you have any questions or comments!
