We kick things off with a feature on some of the best waves ever photographed. Yeah, big call but we’re throwing it out there - 6-to-8 foot and not a drop of water out of place. We investigate the lives of Kai Otton and Jordy Smith, talk to Rob Machado about his new film The Drifter, travel down the East Coast with Birdless Brown Andrew Kidman and catch up with slab addict Jughead who’s discovered yet another piece of dry reef to bounce his body off. Bob McTavish shares his memories from the Manly Surf Stomp Rocker/Surfie Wars and Sean Doherty chats with the sons of the late Peter Crawford to get an intimate view of the enigmatic kneelo/photographer/Aussie surfing legend. Kirk Willcox takes us to Ground Zero at Padang, the Indonesian city devastated by Earthquake and Jon Frank pays tribute to the Indian Ocean in a series of images that are nothing short of beautiful. All this and more… the new Surfing World will have you feeling good about surfing this summerWe kick things off with a feature on some of the best waves ever photographed.
