If these Surfboards

Could talk

Phil knows the world of surfing like no-one else, and knows all the stories. In If These Surfboards Could Talk, Phil shares unforgettable tales from behind the boards that every surfer will relate to. From stories of magic boards that could do no wrong to the frustrations of a stubborn ride that wouldn't turn, you'll find the humour and heart behind each wave. Along the way Phil takes us through pioneer boards, boards that changed surfing, arty boards, and the downright quirky. Discover the adventures of lost boards, the ones stolen from backyard sheds, those ruined by a rogue roof rack, or even the iconic rides blown out to sea. From Bethany Hamilton’s terrifying shark attack to Batman-themed board art and MR’s broken Bumble Bee, these stories run the gamut from relatable to hilarious to fascinating.

Whether it's the one that slipped away or one you simply couldn't buy, these yarns resonate with the soul of surfing.
