Targeted for people who have never so much as picked up a surfboard in their lives, but who are intrigued by this exhilarating sport. Anybody can LEARN TO SURF, let's do it!

The book is designed to help readers build more surfing strength, enhance endurance, increase balance and coordination, and reduce chances of injury. The book contains sample workouts for the home, gym, and on the water.
