A guide written by a passionate surfer
For a long time reserved for men, as we learn in the introduction, surfing is today a sport in full expansion, practiced by more and more women. If the technique remains the same whether you are a man or a woman, some characteristics are however specific to both sexes. And it is precisely in this sense that Loreen Jézéquel, passionate surfer who teaches her passion, writes.
Three themes to learn and get started
Written along three lines - getting ready, gaining confidence and surfing for women - the Practical Guide for Women Surfers - Dare to take the wave! addresses all the themes related to the practice. The first chapters are dedicated to the preparation, from the discovery of the water to the study of the waves or the equipment. The author then tackles the practical phase enriched with tips, advice and beautiful illustrations. She also discusses physical preparation, how to start and how to feel comfortable in the water with safety tips.
A guide written by a woman for women with advice tailored to them
Finally, the last pages are dedicated to typical women's issues, such as menstruation or pregnancy and how to reconcile them with surfing. Throughout her book, Loreen writes for women, taking into account physical specificities such as breasts, when choosing a wetsuit or a board. Physical practice, she brings advice for women who would be less athletic. Through this illustrated and practical guide, the author addresses all women, whether they are aspiring or experienced surfers. The latter may be interested, for example, in the pregnancy or children section.
