5 out of 5 stars Life saver!   July 25, 2007
This book is fantastic! When I was traveling in Central America I developed a weird bump in my chest, right under my sternum. I did a quick search on the internet and found nothing, then I emailed my friend back home and told her to read this book and see if anything came up ... sure enough, they covered my exact ailment ... an inflamed xyphoid process!

This book is full of ailments that pertain only to surfers that few other medical professionals would know about. For the small price, it's worth having as a reference. But since it is so comprehensive, it is a bit too big/heavy/thick to lug around on a trip when you'll need it most, so maybe read up a bit and leave it with a friend who you can contact.

For sure get this book!



5 out of 5 stars You'll feel better reading Sick Surfers!   March 18, 2000

Sick Surfers is a must for any Surfer's library. Yes, Surfers can read and write too!, take a look at Chris Carter, fellow surfer and X-Files Creator!

Anyway, this book, written by two doctors and fellow surfers explains in great detail and in plain english different ailments and their relation to surfing. It also covers preventative medicine. It is a must have for anyone that surfs or is involved in any other related watersports.

See You In The Water-anonymous.
