About this ebook
Surf is probably one of the steadiest-growing sports in the world, maybe because surfing isn't just about sports or physical activity. It's about a culture, a newborn tribe, and a collective identity that thrives within the strength of a global outdoor community. This sense of belonging is reinforced by philosophical assumptions besides a political and economic evidence: the ocean is freedom, and the sea is the last free place on the planet. You can go to the beach and the only thing you need is a board. This fact implies, and relies, on other significant determinations regarding phenomenological and spiritual dimensions. This book reflects a wide and heterogeneous set of essays that will give the reader a wide range of perspectives that depart from the Philosophy of Sport and expand also to cultural, anthropological, medical, poetic, and existential insights.
