As surfers, we all share a deep hunger to venture into uncharted territories, and the same can be said for surf photographers.
As surfing expands globally, and social media steadily increases the demand for quality imagery, surf photography is evolving as an art form. There are more talented photographers veering off in more unique directions than ever before, each one carving out their own niche in the genre.
Take Matt Clark, for example. He defies the expectations put on most surf photographers, focusing on his home coast of New York—a place where few would see the potential for dreamy surf imagery. But by staying local, and honing his craft in harsh winter conditions, he’s managed to find and capture beautiful moments amongst the chaos (“Showcase,” pg. 40).

60 Years Ahead
We had a whole plan for this year. Funny, right? Surfer's 60 year anniversary volume was going to be filled with stories nodding to SURFER’s past, with cover concepts paying homage to the magazine’s most iconic imagery. Our new Page One depicts something that’s never happened in surfing before, let alone on a prior SURFER cover. And our table of contents was completely scrapped and replaced as we reacted to the fizzing, sparking, roiling world around us. In other words, 2020 happened to SURFER, just like it happened to you.
