The Finest Line: The Global Pursuit of Big-Wave Surfing (Insight Editions)
By Rusty Long; Foreword by Tom Carroll; Afterword by Greg Long
Big-wave surfing has long been a part of the sport but, with more watermen pushing the boundaries, this subculture of the surf world is now moving out of the fringes. The current generation of surfers is continually reinventing the limits, making this the most advanced, dynamic, and exciting period in big-wave surfing history. The Finest Line captures the essence of the sport through big-wave photographs and stories, as well as exclusive interviews with the surfers (such as Shane Dorian, Greg Long, and Grant “Twiggy” Baker) who play the starring roles during these rare, large-swell events. This stunning coffee-table book covers the giant, hallmark sessions from the most impressive spots around the globe, including Mavericks (CA), Jaws (HI), Cloudbreak (Fiji), Teahupo’o (Tahiti), Puerto Escondido (Mexico), and Dungeons (South Africa).
