Hello, I was wondering if you had any resources on surfing, the type of moves, the waves, the erm technical speak and erm anything about the competitions how they work etc. If you do, thank you so much!
Of course! I’m so sorry this is coming in so late, but I hope you see this and that this helps you some!
Firstly, congrats for taking the time to really research this and to treat surfing like a real sport rather than just throwing a blonde guy with a hang loose symbol into your book. You’re already well on your way to a well-thought-out story and character. Surfing is complicated and lots of different types of people participate in it. While I’m a Californian and everyone thinks this is what I do all day, I can’t say I know much about it myself, but here are the resources I found that I think will help.
First off, the terminology:
The Glossary of Surfings Terms (this site in general is also great, so I reccomend checking it out beyond this page. There’s all sorts of information here about surfing, waves, etc. and can link you to surfing movies, books, and more!
Surfology Glossary (this one is a bit more scientific, so you really sound like you understand how surfing actually works)
Glossary of Surf Terms
Now all about Waves:
The Science of Surfing
How to Read Waves
How to Read a Surf Report
Other Basics:
Surfing for Beginners: Everything You Need to Know
All You Need to Know About Surfing
Surf Competitions:
How They Actually Work
World Surf League (FAQ)
Guide to Surf Events
How the Judging Works

Magical Paths Begging To Be Walked
Roads and paths pervade our literature, poetry, artwork, linguistic expressions and music. Even photographers can’t keep their eyes (and lenses) off of a beautiful road or path, which is why we collected this list of 28 amazing photos of paths.
Paths like these have a powerful grip on the human imagination – they can bring adventure, promise and change or solitude, peace and calm. There’s nothing like a walk down a beautiful path to clear your head – or to fill it with ideas!
I’ll leave you with an excellent quote from J. R. R. Tolkien’s works while you enjoy these images; “It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to.“
