Descripción
An exciting and entertaining new book, 100 Foot Wave: Kingdom of Hawaii, has recently been made available, enabling all surfing fanatics and landlubbers alike to climb into the psyche of death-defying giant wave riders and their relentless ambition to surf the largest waves Earth's oceans can spawn.
Authored by twin brothers Milton and Michael Willis, themselves balls-to-the-wall giant wave riders, 100 Foot Wave: Kingdom of Hawaii, delves deep into what drives men to risk their lives for the thrill of surfing perhaps the largest waves ever attempted.
Chapter by thrilling chapter, the Willis Bros take you through not only their personal development in becoming giant wave riders, they cover the history, culture and unique art of those that embrace this extreme sport, as well as big wave surfing legends Laird Hamilton, Buzzy Kerbox, Garrett McNamara, Ken Bradshaw, Ace Cool, Mark Foo, Peter Mel, and Taylor Knox, to name a few.
As you read on, you will learn about heart-clutching big wave wipeouts that reside in the "House of Pain"; surviving treacherous rip currents in churning seas, and the dramatic Code Black Waimea Bay rescue of Titi Kinimaka by Carl Palmer and Michael Willis.
Of course, none of these extreme big wave surfers could even dream of paddling out in such conditions without the physical and mental training it takes to ride these fast moving, monster walls of water. The Willis Bros address this most critical subject in the chapter "Now, Mind/Body, Body/Mind Unification". Whether you aspire to become an extreme big wave surfer or stoked just to cruise small beachbreaks, there is great value in absorbing the information offered here.
Published by The Surfing Authority and dubbed "the Iliad, the Odyssey, and the Bible all rolled into one", 100 Foot Wave: Kingdom of Hawaii was written by the Willis Bros in the true Spirit of Aloha, resulting in an important and classic literary contribution to the world of surfing. Thus far, rave reviews have come pouring in from across the planet, validating the Willis Bros hard work in putting this book together.
