    Sister Surfer: A Womans Guide to Surfing with Bliss and Courage by Kia Afcari - Presentation Transcript

    1. Sister Surfer: A Womans Guide to Surfing with Bliss and Courage by Kia Afcari Inspiring And Informative Book When Mary Osborne won the longboard contest in MTV’s Surf Girls, she immediately became the strong and beautiful figurehead for a nation of surfing women. Now, here’s Osborne’s introduction to the sport, the only guide for women who surf, and, more importantly, for those women who have always dreamed of paddling out beyond the breakers and catching the ideal wave. Osborne is a master of the slickest sport. Here she shares her wisdom with readers, on everything from putting on a wet suit (do wear your bathing suit underneath, ladies) to catching the first wave (don’t start too far out). There are tips on choosing a board, carrying it, knowing which boards need wax, finding a surfing buddy, figuring out what that leash is for and how it works, and finding the perfect spot.
    2. Sister Surfer is more than a technical manual filled with gorgeous images. It is also an inspirational guide, a handbook to freeing the spirit and overcoming the barriers of the world and of the self. This unique book, perfectly timed to ride the growing wave that is women and surfing, will appeal to anyone who loves the deep blue.

Personal Review: Sister Surfer: A Womans Guide to Surfing with Bliss and Courage by Kia Afcari Sister Surfer is a great inspiration. I picked up the book for a friend but had to buy a second copy for myself. Who doesn't want to surf? Starting is the hardest part. Sister Surfer de- mystifies surfing and makes it accessible to everyone. You do not need to be twenty, athletic, and bikini clad. The wide range of women of different ages and experiences featured in the book help to reinforce the idea that anyone can surf. Women like camaraderie and this book makes you feel like you are part of a community even if you haven't started surfing yet. The lessons in the book can be taken into every other part of your life where courage needs to overcome fear.
    3. The book is beautifully done with lots of graphics and great photos of women with the huge smiles that come from conquering fear or achieving a dream. The style of the book allows you to either skim for relevant topics or read it from cover to cover.
