Almond's Guide to Your First Year of Surfing (Paperback)

Now 83 pages! I completely rewrote this book from the ground up for 2025—making it more helpful than ever for your surfing journey.

My goal is to shorten your learning curve so you can become a well-rounded surfer who paddles out with confidence and ultimately builds a lifelong connection to the ocean.
