BOOK HOBIE MASTER OF WATER WIND & WAVES TRADE EDITION
Journalist and author Paul Holmes’ latest book is the biography of a man who is such a rock star in the worlds of surfing and sailing that he is known worldwide by just one name.
Hobie Alter’s genius and innovation shaped and changed the entire cultures of both sports for posterity. Hobie, the man and the brand, created an empire of surfboards, catamarans, monohull sailboats, powered craft, radio-controlled model gliders, apparel, sunglasses and more.
And that was just the foundation for many other amazing endeavors in this incredible life story of a Californian surfer whose prime motivation was always simply, in his own words, “to build them a toy, and a game to play with it.”
