    The Surf Atlas by Luke Gartside and gestalten about iconic waves and surfing hinterlands
    A surf on a wave in The Surf Atlas by gestalten and Luke Gartside
    In the far southeast corner of the Tasman Peninsula, beneath a towering stern-shaped bluff, a series of boulder-strewn plateaus descend like a staircase into the seething ocean below. Shipstern Bluff in Australia, described as nature’s nastiest staircase is featured in The Surf Atlas by Luke Gartside.
    Surfing in Alaska is something special, as depicted in The Surf Atlas by gestalten and Luke Gartside.
    Occupying a small chunk of Mexico’s Pacific coast, the state of Nayarit is host to a bonanza of mellow setups, including point breaks, river mouths, and offshore island peaks. This surfing spot is a great place for easy-going glider.
    Dozens of other less well-known surf spots dot the Canary islands, from the hard-to-reach slabs of Gran Canaria’s north coast to the secluded reefs of La Palma, the best of which was recently destroyed by lava spewing from the Cumbre Vieja volcano. Find out more about all these places in The Surf Atlas by Luke Gartside and gestalten.
    To a certain type of surfer, just looking at the Lofoten Islands in two dimensions is enough to raise the blood. This archipelago off Norway’s northwest coast is exposed to fierce Arctic storms, sending swells toward a coastline with the kind of brutal, craggy geography that means an abundance of potential points and reefs ripe for discovery. This incredible location is also featured in The Surf Atlas, a book by Luke Gartside.
    The definition of perfection is surely something that remains just out of reach, and nowhere is that more apparent than in surfing. There are endless variables that might make a “perfect” wave, both physical and metaphysical. The true beauty of waves lie not in their perfection but their imperfection. That’s what keeps us going.
    Tarkwa Bay is a small sandy strip of man-made beach located just outside the entrance of Lagos in Nigeria. There, a break wall creates perfect wedges. This accidental gift from the city’s civil engineers has spawned a lively surf scene. At its center are John Micheletti, an Italian who was born and raised in Nigeria, and Godpower Pekipuma, a Tarkwa local through and through. Discover this amazing surfing spot in The Surf Atlas by Luke Gartside
    Surfers on a giant wave. Find out more about iconic surfing spots in The Surf Atlas by Luke Gartside.
    Treasure and treachery in the Fortunate Isles, the Canary Islands. These islands are ideally placed to receive powerful swells from the North Atlantic, which lurch out of deep water and land with a punch on the archipelago’s abundance of reefs and beaches. It’s a dream location for surfers around the globe.
    Mexi Log Fest is the brainchild of Israel Preciado, a surfer from Mexico City. As a teenager, he aspired to compete internationally but, after being denied a US visa, he resolved instead to bring the longboarding world to him. In 2015, he auctioned off his quiver of surfboards to raise the funds needed to hold his first Log Fest in Sayulita. Find out more about it in The Surf Atlas by Luke Gartside.
    Ever since people first rode waves they’ve followed compulsions and dreams to find better ones. For surfers, the ideal of the perfect wave burns in their mind. It’s this endless search that makes surfing unique; a dream that built a culture. But does the perfect wave exist? And if so, do we really want to find it?
