Publisher's Synopsis
Pam Burridge is currently World Surfing Champion and winner of the Coca Cola Clean Surf Competition. She was born in the Sydney suburb of Manly Beach, where she was introduced, at an early age, to surfing and the social mores of the surfing world. This led to an early battle with alcohol until, in 1990, she joined Alcoholics Anonymous. In this book Pam Burridge talks freely about the courage and determination neeed to compete in a male-dominated sport, where sponsorship money and income rarely filter down to female participants.
