Three expert physicians/surfers trained in emergency medicine, sports medicine, and family medicine explain everything you need to know to stay safe in the water.

Whether youâ€™re a novice or an expert, an SUPer or a bodyboarder, Surf Survival is the only book that every surfer must have in his or her backpack, car, and beach house. This practical handbook explains everything from how to reduce a shoulder dislocation to understanding waves and currents, from how to treat jellyfish stings to how to apply a tourniquet.

â€¢ Fitness for surfers
â€¢ Prevention and rehabilitation of common overuse injuries
â€¢ Wilderness first aid
â€¢ Surviving the sun
â€¢ Surf-travel medicine
â€¢ Surviving big surf
â€¢ SUP
â€¢ Surfer's ear
