Greg Noll: The Art Of The Surfboard

One of the greatest surfers of all time, Greg Noll has built a considerable reputation as master of surfboard making, or “shaping.” Today, collectors and surfers alike prize his unique brand of board. Recently featured in the award-winning documentary feature, Riding Giants, “Da Bull,” in his iconic black-and-white striped trunks, was emblematic of big surf and fearless commitment. In addition to being a pioneer of big-wave surfing, surf movies, and surf magazines, by the mid-1960s, Noll was one of the largest surfboard manufacturers in the world.
Now living in Crescent City, California, Noll still shapes twelve boards a year out of old-growth salvage woods-replicas of Duke Kahanamoku’s olo and other exotica for collectors. The Art of the Surfboard combines the art of building extraordinary surfboards with fascinating surfing history and photography. It’s a must-have for surfers and surfing history buffs of any age.
The Art of the Surfboard includes:
A biographical introduction to Greg Noll
A concise history of the evolution of surfboards and construction techniques from ancient Hawaii to the modern era
Descriptive step-by-step photo sequences with explanatory text on building balsa, foam, and classic wooden surfboards
A chronological gallery of Greg Noll surfboards, vintage 1950 to 2005, featuring photographs, action shots, commentary from surfers and shapers, and from Greg himself on the boards and their eras
Portraits of several important Greg Noll surfboard collectors and their collections, with accompanying bios and information on the boards
A guide to the various Greg Noll surfboard labels and the years each was used
Illustrated throughout with action surf shots taken by some of surfing’s master photographers

BPS ‘Storm’ Lycra Sports Socks – Sand Skins for Outdoor Volleyball, Surfing, Dive Boots, Canoeing, Snorkeling, Beach Soccer – for Men and Women – High Cut Socks (Pink Floral, M)

Get your pair of BPS ‘Second Skin’ Lycra Fin Socks today — choose between High Cut or Low Cut. Made from a soft and stretchy premium quality Lycra upper with a tougher than standard sole expect them to feel both flexible and fitting for your feet when you’re doing beach sports, snorkeling, tide-pooling, or just hanging out! So soft and lightweight you forgot you are even wearing them; they feature an adjustable velcro strap around the ankle to ensure an excellent fit (it will not feel like it will come off!). ‘Second Skin’ socks will ensure your feet are well protected from hot sand, mud, blisters, and sunburn, and the tougher than standard sole has a rubber grip pattern to handle slippery environments. With the Lycra upper they are also easy to clean and quick to dry, but also help keep your feet warm. To get the most out of your socks you will be emailed some super helpful instructions from BPS with all important photos. And buy with complete confidence – as all our products are stored and shipped (quickly and reliably) to you by Amazon and are FULLY GUARANTEED by us for one year; so if there are ANY fit or quality issues, your socks will be refunded or replaced (you choose). Both styles have a fully flexible sole for great ‘foot feel’ when being used. You really will forget you are wearing them. But for this to happen the sole is not rigid enough to handle walking on asphalt or concrete for very long; to keep your socks feeling super comfortable just put them on once at the beach or river or Lake. If you do want to walk on asphalt or concrete – we recommend a dive boot or shoe w/ a fully rigid rubber sole (not so good for ‘foot feel’). Thanks for looking at a product from our store – SURF and SNOW Warehouse. We are a small family business that ONLY sells what we know and love -water sports gear. We know our products, use our products, and stand behind them 100%, so if you have any questions about using any of our products please just ask.
