DISCOVER THE ART AND SCIENCE OF SURFBOARD DESIGN AND SURFING.

For over 30 years, master shaper and surfer Sergio Gomez has explored the connection between board design, wave dynamics, and creative expression. In ShapeShifter, he takes you on a stunning visual journey through the evolution of surfboard design-blending craftsmanship, innovation, and timeless surf culture.

Featuring breathtaking photography and expert insights, this book breaks down how surfboards work, why design choices matter, and how shapes influence the surfing experience. From the effortless glide of longboards and mid-lengths to the unique speed and flow of the twin fin, and the high-performance precision of the modern shortboard, ShapeShifter celebrates the beauty and function of surf craft.

Perfect for surfers, shapers, designers, and ocean lovers, this book is a must-have for anyone passionate about surfing's past, present, and future.
