Acid Magazine - N°8

Each issue is structured around 26 chapters, encyclopaedia-style entries that approach surfing from unexpected angles: the sociology of surf spots, the economics of the surf industry, colonialism and cultural appropriation, coastal ecology, alongside portraits of surfers who don't fit the usual clichés of the sport. Essays, photo reportage, interviews and archival material combine to ask what surfing really says about our societies — a world away from standard surf-brand imagery. A demanding read, made for anyone as interested in surf culture as in what it reveals about the world around it.
