    The Stormrider Surf Guide: New England

    Reliable Surf Travel Information | 24 pages

    New England, the cluster of six states occupying the extreme northeast corner of the United States, is fabled for its fiercely cold winters, yet it is situated on about the same longitude as southern France. Four of these states touch on the Atlantic coast and have surfable waves: Maine (ME), New Hampshire (NH), Massachusetts (MA) and Rhode Island (RI). In fact, New England boasts the American East Coast's best surfing areas. Further to the south, a broad, smoothly sloping continental shelf drains incoming swells of much of their wave energy, but here the offshore waters are deep, and swells sweep into shore with plenty of punch still left in them. New England's four surfing states are the only places in the east where you're likely to encounter rocks in the surf. Pointbreaks and reefs, consisting of boulders, pebbles, or fingers of rock, provide a contoured base for some killer waves.

    The Stormrider Surf Guide: Florida

    Reliable Surf Travel Information | 24 pages

    Florida encapsulates the East Coast surf scene unlike any other Atlantic State. The most southern point on mainland USA conjures up visions of warm weather, sub tropical water temperatures, and a whole year round, beach life environment, that even California has problems equaling. While this is true in the south, where the warm Gulf Stream current kisses the coastline near Miami, Florida hides a much more complex persona than the stereotyped image of sun and surf. The barrier island theme continues the length of the coastline, and the only interruption to the predominantly NE facing coastline is the huge tract of off limits land at Cape Canaveral. Florida is also home to the most prolific surfing champions, in both the men's and women's divisions of international surfing competition.

    The Stormrider Surf Guide: North America

    Reliable Surf Travel Information | 52 pages

    Best described as diverse, the North American coastline cradles every type of wave from ankle-snapper to tow-in giant and a range of environments from balmy to ice-encrusted. Taken from The World Stormrider Guides these continent defining surf zones give the low down on everything surf, plus the state of the environment and a condensed cultural history on more than just the SoCal scene, establishing The Stormrider Surf Guide North America as the authoritative continent-wide guide.
