Une ode aux surfeuses du monde entier, les championnes et les chasseuses de grosses vagues, mais aussi les surfing mamas, les créatrices de mode, les shapeuses, les photographes, les globetrotteuses, les activistes, etc.
Voilà les portraits croisés de trente-six surfeuses, trente-six femmes qui ont choisi leur voie avec passion. Parmi elles, Pauline Ado, Anaïs Pierquet, Leah Dawson, Sara Guix, Meryem El Gardoum, Stéphanie Goldie, Valerie Duprat, Séréna Lutton, Cécilia Thibier, Marta Tomasini, etc. Elles ont comme dénominateur commun l'amour de la glisse et sont la preuve que l'histoire du surf s'écrit aussi au féminin. Elles sont les ambassadrices d'une nouvelle génération de surfeuses inspirées et talentueuses. Photographes, réalisatrices, shapeuses, pionnières, globetrotteuses, activistes, surfeuses professionnelles, elles dédient leur temps à l'océan, éprouvant chacune un lien singulier avec lui.
C'est en complément d'une magnifique sélection d'images qu'elles se livrent sur leur état d'esprit, leur manière de pratiquer et de concevoir le surf, si inspirant pour les filles d'aujourd'hui. Ramer, plonger, glisser, s'élancer, libérer son esprit... surfer ; les sensations et les sentiments qui sont l'essence de leur pratique se retrouvent couchés sur le papier pour mieux les célébrer !

Whether it's diving off a cliff, cross-country skiing in Antarctica, or free climbing the Picos de Europe in Northern Spain, women in extreme sports are proving every bit as strong, determined and ambitious as their male peers. As in her extremely popular previous books, Surf Like a Girl and Skate Like a Girl, Carolina Amell has compiled spectacular photography that evokes the thrill and beauty of female nontraditional sports in every corner of the world. There's Lynn Jung tackling a parkour course with exquisite grace; Anna von Boetticher skimming the ocean floor hundreds of feet below the surface; Heather Larsen slacklining across a canyon wall; Ashley Fiolek, the world's only deaf professional motocross racer, kicking up dirt on her BMX bike; and other female wakeboarders, Pro-Base jumpers, aerobatic pilots, wingsuit pilots, and, ironically, Ironman champions. Each of the athletes contributes her own motivating words of encouragement that will inspire girls of every age and from every culture to chase their dreams, shatter every glass ceiling, kick down the men's clubhouse door-and have fun doing it all.
