Surfing the Manual: Advanced is the 2008 illustrated master-class every serious surfer wants on the shelf. At 335 pages, veteran surf journalist Jim Kempton distills decades of wave knowledge into a single, information-packed paperback released by Wave Finder Press. Step-by-step photographs break down elite techniques—deep bottom turns, late drops, rail-to-rail transitions, aerials—while satellite maps and swell charts show exactly how to read reefs, points, and beach breaks like a pro. Whether you're a teen competitor or an adult weekend charger, this reference moves you from simply riding waves to designing the whole session in advance.

What makes this copy collectible is condition: crisp pages, no ex-library stamps or previous-owner marks, and stored smoke-free since purchase. The 2008 first edition is already getting hard to find in clean, unscuffed shape, so a very-good copy is the one you keep as your go-to guide and future shelf classic. Kempton also layers in nutrition, cross-training, board shaping, and travel logistics, turning the book into a mini surf-lifestyle encyclopedia that stays useful long after the basics are dialed.
