We get asked this a lot. AFROSURF - the book is our (first) attempt at an answer. 320 pages that explores the diversity of the surfing experience as it plays out in the Motherland. By no means is it even close to definitive. The culture of wave-riding across most of the continent, is still in the process of self-discovery, remembrance and realisation. AFROSURF offers a glimpse into the history, the culture and the lives of a group of people, whose context and experiences are over-looked or under-reported, taking pleasure in an activity that often serves to define their relationship with themselves, their community and the environment. Surfing. Instigated by the global Coronavirus lockdowns of 2020, we pitched and fundraised the idea of AFROSURF on Kickstarter and pulled the project together in 75 days. Together with Mami Wata co-founder Selema Masekela and some of Africa's brightest thinkers, writers, photographers and surfers we explore the unique culture of eighteen coastal countries, from Morocco to Somalia, Mozambique, South Africa, and beyond.
