Title : Learn to Surf
Author : James MacLaren
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : A good book for surfers and beginners

Despite of language difficulties, this book give me some tips about surfing sport. I'm a surfer for only two years and I feel that my expertise have been improved more rapidly since I wrote the book. I'm graduated in Oceanography and think that the author have a correct approach about technical aspects of coastal dynamics and safe behavior on beach and sea waters, probably acquired on a wide experience (surfing a lot). Good choice for all water fans.

Title : Surf Flex: Flexibility, Yoga and Conditioning Exercises for Surfers (Sport Flex Series)
Author : Paul Frediani
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Surf Flex: Flexibility, Yoga and Conditioning for Surfers

An excellent book. As an leisure windsurfer and feeling I need to stretch and get fitter this book gives you the exercise routines. It seems to be aimed at those who can surf every day(I wish) but a watering down of the some exercises for those who do windsurfing once a week is possible. After only a couple of days of the sun-salutations I'm feeling a bit more flexible, but still in theh aching stages. On the whole a great buy.

Title : Surfing Europe (Footprint Surfing Guide)
Author : Chris Nelson
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : awesome

I've just bought this book and I have to say it's the best surf guide out there. Its got more spots than my Stormrider but it also has info on places to stay, surf shops, tips from top surfers, stuff to actually read - I don't know why no one's done this before. I'm off to France next week and this will definately be on my dashboard. Nice one.

Title : The World Stormrider Guide: Vol 2 (Stormrider Guides)
Author : Antony Colas
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Surfed Out

Buy this book if you have any sense of adventure and enjoy surfing! I couldn't decide if it was worth buying after the original Stormrider guide, but this new adition contains loads of different spots! I never even thought that some of these places had such sick waves. I've started to plan next years trips already, great help, loads of info, buy it!!

Title : Ski Flex: 10 Minutes to Better Skiing (Sports Flex)
Author : Paul Frediani
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Sound stretching and strengthening advice for skiers

This is a very brief but useful book that targets ski specific stretches, warm-ups and warm downs for ski seasn, as well as off-season strengthening / fitness exercises.

It you want to get the most out of your time in the mountains, I highly reccommend it.

Title : Skiing (Crowood Sports Guides)
Author : Fred Foxon
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : A very good look at the basic's of skiing

Fred Foxon's book covers the basic's of skiing from the first day through to skiing bumps and powder. Skiing has changed drastically in the last few years but,the basics are still the same. Even though this book was written in 1991 it still has much to offer the reader. Excellent photos help make it a clear and an easy to understand teaching aid.

Title : The All-mountain Skier: The Way to Expert Skiing
Author : Mark Elling
Rating : 2 Stars out of 5.
Summary : I can't agree with all the comments!

It's a good basic book and a useful reference. But it won't make you a good skier and it certainly won't make you "an advanced skier overnight".

If you're anything but a beginner take a look at "The Athletic Skier" by Warren Witherell and see what a really good ski manual is all about.

Title : "Time Out" Ski Guide (Time Out Ski Snowboarding Europe)
Author :
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Best European Ski Guide by Miles!!!

Working out where to go skiing has always been a bit like Russian roulette: most of the time you get away with it but sometimes you have a nightmare of a trip. Not any more. This book helps you make an informed decision on where, when and what to do when you get there. It includes all sorts of info such as which runs to take on, which restaurants to eat at or which bars to frequent. And because all the European resorts are covered, once you've decided where to go this season, you can get to thinking where you want to go next time around as well!!

Love it.

Title : Learn to Surf
Author : James MacLaren
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Before entering the water, read it, often

Sit down and read it on a fine day overlooking the sea and the surf and you'll go back in the water understanding so much more - It really is that good, even for such a small volume. After reading three other books on how to learn, this is the one that is making sense of all the others. That, and Wingnut's Art of Longboarding DVD if you can find it.

The section on reading the water surface to identify rip currents I haven't seen described anywhere else... plenty of books explain the dangers of rips, but not how to find spot them on the water surface

By all means buy some other step-by-step photo books, but get this one too

Author : Antony Colas
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
