A voodoo wave. The Everest of the ocean. What surfer in his right mind would choose to surf Mavericks with its 50degree murky water, 60foot faces, punishing rock bottom, and shifting Central California currents over riding the warm, blue, big waves of Hawaii? But Mavericks presents a surfing challenge like no other. Each winter, starting in October, an elite corps from around the world journey to Mavericks to test themselves on its cold, forbidding wavesbecause challenge, above all else, motivates the bigwave surfer. With heartstopping photography and an exceptional, driving text, Mavericks tracks the 1/2ve most dangerous days in the breaks history, including its first casualty: bigwave celebrity Mark Foo, who died on the morning of his very first visit. Surf journalist Matt Warshaw weaves into this vivid record the complete and unconventional history of bigwave surfing, from its ancient Hawaiian origins through to the modern drama of towin surfers. Like Into Thin Air, Mavericks promises to transcend its core audience, appealing to the huge armchair market that is enthralled by the sporting life lived at the extreme of danger.

The book is visually gorgeous! It's an amazing coffee table piece. But I had to wait longer than expected for it to arrive, which was a bit frustrating. Still worth it if you love surfing culture!

Not What I Expected
I was so excited to read Mavericks, but it didn’t meet my expectations. The stories were good, but I was hoping for more detailed accounts of the actual surfing experiences. Kind of disappointed.

Great for Inspiration, but Lacked Depth
I really liked the photography and inspirational stories in Mavericks. However, I felt some chapters skimmed over the technical aspects of big wave surfing. Still a solid read for anyone interested in the sport!

Incredible Read for Surfing Enthusiasts
Mavericks: The Story of Big Wave Surfing is an epic tale! The visuals are stunning and the stories told about big wave legends are captivating. I bought this for my husband, who's a huge surfing fan, and he couldn't put it down!
