  • "First published in a limited edition, which sold out instantly on publication, this new edition showcases Grannis's most vibrant work-from the bliss of catching the perfect wave at San Onofre to dramatic wipeouts at Oahu's famed North Shore. An innovator in the field, Grannis suction-cupped a waterproof box to his board, enabling him to change film in the water and stay closer to the action than other photographers of the time. He also covered the emerging surf lifestyle, from "surfer stomps" and hoards of fans at surf contests to board-laden woody station wagons along the Pacific Coast Highway. It is in these iconic images that a sport still in its adolescence embodied the free-spirited nature of an era-a time before short boards and celebrity endorsements, when surfing was at its bronzed best."
  • "Sélection de photographies de surf prises par le photographe L. Grannis, surfer lui-même depuis 1931, dans les années 1950. Une des caractéristiques de ses photographies est d'être au plus près de l'action, grâce à un appareil résistant à l'eau. Son travail couvre également une grande variété de styles de surf, allant des compétitions aux surfers itinérants le long de la côte Pacifique."
