The team behind the iconic series of surf travel books ‘The Stormrider Surf Guides’, have now launched an online version – stormrider.surf.
With more than 5000 surf spots listed, the website becomes the world’s largest and more comprehensive surf travel guide. It covers every continent and allows travelling surfers access to detailed surf spot information, plus additional data and forecasting.
Key features of the website include:
- Search – find breaks, towns, regions or countries
- Filter – use these to narrow down your selection
- Navigate – you can zoom and explore the world map, finding new places to visit and surf spots to check out
- Library – explore 100’s of surf videos and articles, including those related to travel and culture.
The website is designed to make it easy for you to find the information you need when researching a surf spot, country or region, plus it inspires you to plan that next trip, as it’s packed full of stunning images from some of the world’s top surf photographers.
There’s also things to help inspire you, such as the seasonal calendar that gives you the best places to surf on the planet, based on which month you want to travel.
Whilst the website is free to access, with some information available to all users, the Stormrider Passport Subscription is what unlocks the full features of it and unlimited access to everything.
In addition to the standard website, the Stormrider Passport has the additional features of:
- Detailed access to 5000+ surf spots
- +My Surf Map – you can fill in your own personal surf map, plotting the waves you’ve surfed or want to
- Lowdown – gives you insights into the type of waves in each region and then compare them with List View
- Forecasts and webcams – a Windy forecast for each break, plus alternative forecasts and webcams where available
- Stormrider Library – explore 100’s of curated surf videos and articles, specific to each break viewed.
Currently the Stormrider Passport Subscription is available for just £12 for a year, instead of the standard price of £30. Also you can have a free trail for 24 hours, to find out all of the great stuff it has to offer.
Bruce Sutherland, Publishing Editor said: “What’s so exciting about this ever-expanding website is that surfers can personalise all sorts of parameters using the filters that will return results that suit their surfing and travelling preferences.”
The Low Pressure team behind the Stormrider Surf Guides have been publishing information to help travelling surfers for over 35 years and say that stormrider.surf represents the culmination of 17 printed books and 39 eBooks.
