“If in doubt, paddle out”- Nat Young

This is a truthful autobiographical account joining 25 short stories from surfing legends Nat Young¹s first 50 years.....Mickey Dora and his Lotus on Pacific Coast Highway ...2nd prize over Buff¹s shoulder...Smoking the wallopers bob hope... and another 20 tales of his adventures with the most colourful characters involved in the surfing world. With the aid of his mum's journals and press clippings he was able to join the pieces of his life story together. Humble family beginings to world champion, husband to father, party animal to entrepreneur. Through all this Nat Young was destined to be a surfer and one of the best the world would ever see. This book is a fascinating combination of surfing history (Australian in particular) and the history of a man who pushed to get every ounce of enjoyment out of life. This is a very informative, yet light hearted book with more than its share of incredible surfing tales. From surfing the best waves the world has to offer, the early days of the world tour and the unavoidable changes of the 70's. This book is nothing short of the ultimate life style a surfer could wish for.

Read this today in the Library while waiting for the car to be fixed. Contains some great photographs and is an inspiration to living your dream. In Nat's case, surfing. Great memories and for those who didn't like it, I guess you had to be there.
