A colourful, insider portrait of ’70s surf tradition, with a foreword by Pulitzer Prize–successful writer William Finnegan

Should you had been there, even only for a few of it―Hawaii, California, browsing, the ’70s―the reminiscences and tales will circulation freely from these pictures. Jeff Divine was there for all of it, and these photos have been culled from an unlimited private archive. Divine was capturing for Surfer, the month-to-month journal that was the bible of the scene. His pictures from this archive present the precommercialized period in browsing when the hippie affect nonetheless held sway. Surfers had their very own slang-infused language and had been deep right into a world of Mom Ocean, wilderness and a tradition that mainstream society spurned. Surfboards had been handmade in household garages, typically made for a particular sort of wave or pace, for paddling, ease of turning, and featured all types of psychedelic designs. Some had been even hollowed out to smuggle hash from Morocco.

The colour and black-and-white pictures collected right here, taken all through California on the coastlines at Baja, Dana Level, Laguna Seashore, La Jolla, Malibu, San Clemente and Oahu, give a vivid picture of this close-knit tradition and the unimaginable athletic feats of its heroes and heroines.

Raised in La Jolla, California, Jeff Divine (born 1950) began photographing the browsing world in 1966. He held jobs as photograph editor for 35 years with Surfer journal and Surfer’s Journal. His works have been displayed worldwide in museums and galleries, in addition to in books, magazines and media. In 2019 he was inducted into the Huntington Seashore Browsing Stroll of Fame for his contribution to surf tradition in a profession lasting 50 years.
