GoSee Book Tip : ‘Women Making Waves: Trailblazing Surfers In and Out of the Water’ – a visual homage to the sisterhood of surfing with beautiful beaches and soulful portraits by Anne MENKE

With ‘Women Making Waves’, author Lara Einzig has published impressive photographs by ANNE MENKE c/o KRISTINA KORB for a visually stunning journey across the oceans of the world featuring soulful women surfers living with purpose.

“The women in this book are my sisters of the sea, and I believe that by sharing these remarkable stories, we can inspire other women to make wiser and more empowered choices in their own lives.” – says Kassia Meador, former professional longboarder and founder of Kassia+Surf.

‘Women Making Waves’ is an homage to the sisterhood of surfing, featuring extraordinary women from the United States, the Philippines, Mexico, Australia, Senegal, Japan, France and other countries. Author Lara Einzig presents more than two dozen inspiring female surfers from around the world – from activists to artists, who are breaking new ground on land and finding healing, joy and community in the water.

For instance, Maya Gabeira, a Brazilian woman who surfed the biggest wave of all times in 2020; Bonnie Wright, the British actress, activist and author; Risa Mara Machuca, who operates a free surfing camp for local children; and Zara Noruzi, an Iranian in exile, who has found peace on the water in Australia.

In candid interviews on the transformative power of surfing and with immersive photographs of beautiful beaches, surf shacks, and popular breaks, Einzig and Menke capture the life-changing strength and resilience that these women discover in their connection to the waves. ‘Women Making Waves’ captures the innate, spiritual essence of our connection to the ocean, inviting us all to paddle out.

Lara Einzig: The women featured here are an eclectic, diverse group from around the world, each with their own intimate relationship to the ocean and surfing abilities. I met with world champions, big-wave record-holders, mothers, adventurers, industry leaders, artists, doctors, and activists. They are riding giants, defying norms, dismantling the establishment, fighting for diversity and equality, and calling out injustices. What connects these women is the sisterhood of surfing. They may take to the water for vastly different reasons, but the practice offers them each the same profound reward. Surfing is simultaneously challenging, calming, healing, and humbling. It both magnifies and microscopically sharpens your focus. It reveals a strength from within that otherwise might remain hidden. And it offers a space for meditation and perspective. Each time you enter the water, you return to the shore – transformed.

Just imagine the forces of change we can inspire and create when we mobilize this dynamic vanguard, acknowledge the definitive truth that the future is female, and understand that surfing is not only a sport – it’s a way to change the world.”

Lara Einzig is a stylist, creative consultant, author, and surfer. After spending twelve years in London working in the area of fashion marketing for Topshop and as a fashion director for Goop, she moved to Los Angeles where she founded a creative direction consultancy. Lara is on a mission to bring equality to the water and to inspire women around the world to live a life of purpose. Lara lives with her husband and three boys in Venice, California.

Anne Menke occupies the unique realm where high fashion meets bohemian travel and a free spirit. Her editorial work (for magazines including W, Sports Illustrated, Esquire, Elle, In Style, Travel & Leisure, Conde Nast Traveler, and Vogue) exudes a sense of glamour often amid a backdrop of remote, exotic locales. Menke has photographed couture on the mountains of Peru and beauty contests on the plains of Mongolia.
