«Surfing: The Next Step» is the surfing guide by António Pedro de Sá Leal and André Carvalho, in a bilingual Portuguese-English edition (paperback, 144 pages).
The book argues that surf schools teach you to glide, but not to handle yourself in the water: how to get in and out, where to position yourself at the peak, or how to read a forecast. It then covers rules, boards, wetsuits, nutrition, exercises to prevent injuries, and safety guidelines, so the surfer gains autonomy and enjoys each wave more.
Published by Casa das Letras in 2018, it can be read from start to finish or by chapters, depending on the reader's interest.
For surfers who already glide but want to gain autonomy and judgment in the water: read forecasts, choose a beach, and not depend on a school.
