San Francisco's Jochen Kahns, Adrian Maestas, and Oliver Imkamp serve up vintage surf guitar classics peppered with modern driving rhythms. Drenched in reverb, high on style, and influenced by Dick Dale, the Ventures and the Sandals, the Hiwatters are keeping the swing of classic surf music alive in the Bay Area and beyond.

Every winter when the ocean buoys start to read 10-, 15-, and 20-feet, the coast of Half Moon Bay, California, is transformed by an enormous wave called Maverick's. Recognized as one of the most dangerous big wave surf breaks in the world, Maverick's is big, cold, and sickeningly powerful. It's the best show in town, but until now you could only see it through a pair of binoculars. Inside Maverick's brings you right onto the sickening ledge of a 75-foot wave with jaw-dropping photographs and gritty insider accounts of what it's really like out there. Sports columnist Bruce Jenkins and Maverick's surfer Grant Washburn have interviewed top big wave surfers Peter Mel, Zach Wormhoudt, Evan Slater, and others to discuss every aspect of the freakish wave—from the paddle out to the terrifying drop to the inevitable and brutal wipeouts. Covering fifteen years of incredible surfing with photos that have never before been published, Inside Maverick's grants unparalleled access to this legendary wave and the elite core of big wave surfers that are obsessed with challenging it.

Doug Acton lives in Half Moon Bay with his family. Doug has been shooting at Maverick's for Surfing Mag since the early 1990s. His work has been published worldwide.

Bruce Jenkins is a San Francisco Chronicle sports columnist and a senior writer at Surfer Magazine.

Grant Washburn is a writer/filmmaker/surfer who has worked on hundreds of surfing projects. He has competed in all of the competitions at Maverick's, and lives with his wife and two daughters in San Francisco.

In 1965, Ron Stoner was the best surf photographer in the business. Every month, he shot the balmy beaches, bikini-clad girls, and achingly beautiful waves of Southern California for Surfer Magazine. Then, at the height of his fame, Ron Stoner walked off this sunny stage and disappeared forever. In Photo/Stoner, Stoner's strange story is recounted by surfing historian Matt Warshaw alongside Stoner's best photos, reproduced as never before. In these rare images, Stoner recorded more than just a beautiful wave or a perfect moment, he captured the effortless and innocent grace of coastal California—pre-condominium. In word and

in image, Photo/Stoner is a poignant ode to a lost era, and a lost man.
