About this product

Product Information

KEYNOTE: This book is written by a surfer for surfers. It has values for life and a sense of direction for all who enjoy the waves. In Surfer's Code: 12 Simple Lessons for Riding Through Life, world champion surfer Shaun Tomson shares the life lessons he's gathered from decades of surfing-from his boyhood adventures in South Africa to the world tour in the late 1970s to the business world today. For Tomson, surfing is a hobby, a sport, a religion, an obsession and more-it is a way of life. Tomson's life lessons have guided his career to the top of both professional competition and the world of business. Now, he shares these powerful lessons, born on the world's best swells, with all people-including those who might never step on a surfboard. These lessons are born of the collective wisdom of the surf community and are a powerful source of inspiration in the face of extraordinary challenges of every day life. "I tell people that I didn't develop or create the code. I simply wrote down what was out there all the time in my heart and in the hearts of many surfers, always there but sometimes overlooked. I like to think the code was always there, a part of every surfer's life, unspoken maybe, but in our hearts, ever since the ancient Polynesians started surfing so many thousands of years ago." -Shaun Tomson Just a few of the lessons shared in Tomson's Surfer's Code: I Will Never Turn My Back on the Ocean I Will Take the Drop with Commitment I Will Never Fight a Rip Tide I Will Always Paddle Back Out I Will Watch Out for Other Surfers There Will Always Be Another Wave I Will Catch a Wave Every Day All Surfers Are Connected By One Ocean *

  • SURFER'S CODE BY SHAUN TOMSON

    This book is outstanding. It relates to every surfer. We have all experienced the issues that are addressed in these pages. Shaun has done a wonderful job in relating his life experiences in relation to his 12 Surfer Codes. It is an easy read and one I would recommend possibly for your next airline flight searching for that elusive wave in a far away continent! Truly an enjoyable and useful book to be passed on to other fellow surfers. A great read for the groms as well! Good lessons to be learned for all...

  • Great life lessons

    Daughter bought a copy of this book at thrift store. Was so impressed with it I had to find at least 1 copy on ebay. Very well written and interesting even if you aren't a surfer.
