theres a pretty good book by taj burrow thats called 'taj burrows book of hot surfing' It has tonnes of infomation on how to do everything from fixing your board to doing an alley oop and there heaps of other tricks.

theres lots ofstorys in between and other little tips.

I dont know where you would get it though over where you are but you could look on the and ebay though.

Wow thanks for that. I have found the book on Amazon and the reviews its had are amazing. Sounds like the right book I need. Its had 5 stars from 3 different people.
Heres 1 of them:

"If you only buy one book about surfing, this is the one you should get. There's loads of information in here that you would only get otherwise from years of surfing. From stuff directly about surfing (how to do basic turns, floaters, airs and so on) to more abstract advice like how to easily clean saltwater off the underside of your car. On top of that there's interesting stories and 'life advice' to keep you entertained when it's flat. There's stuff in here for most surfers no matter how experienced you are. Buy it!"



Think i'll get this book!
Thanks :D
