Surfing is all about mankind’s intimate connection with the badass energy and beauty of nature. It is a deep bond, and for many surfing is a lifelong devotion and a spiritual outlet—a personal experience far removed from its much-hyped and commercialized public persona. Surfing is deeper than magazines and Hollywood depictions would lead us to believe…much deeper. For most surfers, surfing is in their blood and it connects them to an extended family that is linked through practice, tradition, craft, emulation, apprenticeship, and shared experience.Surfers’ Bloodreaches out to those hardcore, dyed-in-the-wool surfers through an honest and beautiful portrayal of their sport
and its surrounding culture, while at the same time offering outsiders a peek into the intense undiluted world of surf.作者简介Patrick Trefzwas born in the industrial city of Dusseldorf, Germany.

Rusty Long'shome break is Trestles in San Clemente, California. For the past 10 years, his passions for adventure and "elevated sensation" have led him all over the world—often to the outer fringes. He searches out extraordinarily large waves of power and beauty, and rides them with a close-knit, international group of friends who are widely considered this brand of surfing's elite. He recognizes the good fortune he's been afforded through this life as a professional surfer and uses his camera and words to share his unique visions and thoughts. Much of Rusty's work has been published in major surf media outlets. He enjoys life in the moment and appreciates the wonderful connections he makes with people and nature every day.
