About the Book

Instantly acquire all the knowledge you need to pass as an expert in the world of surfing. Never again confuse your tails with your rails, your SUPs with your ASPs, your shapers with your sprayers, or localism with a friendly welcome. Bask in the admiration of your fellow enthusiasts as you reminisce joyfully about those moments watching friends 'going over the falls', and pronounce confidently about the exact location of the 'Ampullae of Lorenzini'. (that particular morsel of knowledge could save you from becoming shark food.)

About the Author :
Craig Jarvis' surfing travels have taken him to many great surf destinations, and a great many beds (the hospital kind - don't get excited). Among his journalistic endeavours, he has been Field Editor of The Surfer's Path, editor of Zigzag, and is now editor-at-large of Wavescape. His favourite story as a freelance contributor was the one published in the Australian surf magazine Tracks that was devoted to an oversexed male dolphin and his libidinous interaction with surfers.

Review :
'The Bluffer's Guides present the means to apparent instant erudition without actually having to know or study anything.' DAILY MAIL 'An amazing amount of solid fact disguised as frivolous observation.' THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH 'A series which threatens to undermine the proper foundations of knowledge.' TODAY 'If you're a kook, especially if you're a kook, you will buy this book, for it reveals the many secrets and tricks of the surfing subculture. I believe it will soon become a classic.' Derek Reilly, Editor, STAB MAGAZINE 'Surfing is a minefield of jargon, specialist knowledge and expert analysis. If you want to bluff your way into becoming more of a ripper than a toe-dipper, pick up a copy of the Bluffer's Guide that's become every surfer's secret checklist.' Greg Martin , Editor, WAVELENGTH MAGAZINE 'Craig Jarvis has managed to fit the whole world of surfing into one book. No mean feat, but then, as surf journalists go, he is a 9th dan. If you can't bluff your way in the salty bits of the world after reading this, you've got no one to blame but yourself.' Roger Sharp, Editor, CARVE MAGAZINE 'When I read this, Mother Nature's womb engulfed me. Totally.' 'Chief', star of The Shaper, winner 'Best Short ', London Surf Film Festival 2012
