"When The Ocean Awakens is a gripping anthology of firsthand stories from a group of big-wave surfers and photographers, which tell of their relentless pursuit of some of the most remove and treacherous waves on the planet. Author Marti Paradisis brings to life the characters and experiences through heart-stopping short stories that will have the reader living in the moment, along with magnificent imagery from Tasmania, Australia's world-renowned surfing photographers.
This book encompasses the inspiring highs and terrifying lows of Mart's tight-knit Tassie crew chasing and riding the waves of their lives and is a testament to the unyielding spirit of adventure and camaraderie that binds these surfers together. They have pushed Martii throughout his own surfing journey - for they are integral to it - and all share a common passion: a profound love and respect for the ocean and the beautiful island they proudly call home."
