A reader-supported surf publication founded in 1992, The Surfer’s Journal is vivid, authoritative, and independent. The goal of each 132-page bimonthly edition? A completely resolved composition. Balance. Color. Story. And purist surf energy from Page One to close-of-book.
In addition to delivery direct to your door, you'll receive unlimited access to every article we've ever published and discounts on TSJ apparel, merchandise, accessories, and more.
The wild spirit of Butch Van Artsdalen, the original “Mr. Pipeline”, is captured here in this collection of stories from some of the people who had the privilege of knowing him in any of the contexts where he most prospered–surfing, rescuing, partying, and brawling.
