    • 284 pages of pure gold
Format: Paperback
When I first ordered this book, I laughed. I couldn't imagine 284 pages worth of information just about paddling. Little did I know... The author shows mastery of the subject. The book is technical, but it is clearly written and organized. There isn't any fluff, just concise structured lessons that build on one another. I have been casually reading and soaking in the Rob's lessons over the past six months. I can confidently say that my paddling, getting out, and wave catching abilities have improved. I find myself analyzing aspects of my paddling stroke I never knew existed before reading the book. The cover advertises "paddling efficiency, speed, and injury prevention". This has all been true in my experience. This is not a light book, but could be extremely valuable to dedicated surfers and coaches who put the work in. I plan on reading it through again. The author also suggests that there will be a Level 2 book, which I'm excited about. Thank you Rob for sharing your knowledge. ... show more

    • This book is worth so much more than $30.
Format: Paperback
The writing is excellent, the quality and value of the information is sky high, and the tremendous amount of work, knowledge, and effort that went into it is apparent. I don’t know Rob, and I don’t leave reviews, but I felt compelled to say something given the book is so new and his first. The book explains the scientific principles at work in an easy to digest way (I stopped understanding science at a 9th grade level, so legit easy), and it provides a system for how to train your body to make the right movements muscle memory. If you like to understand why and how things work not just figure out what works, especially about your movement or how water works, this is a primer on moving through water. Hate on paddling or don’t, if you surf you’re a lanky land mammal just trying to move through water one way or another. The book does not give a quick fix, it's not a listicle or a tiktok hack. I’m sure it’ll take time to all come together in the water as second nature, as with all things worth doing. But I’d bet my money--or, more accurately, I'll bet my time--that this will get me there deliberately much quicker than waiting for it all to happen by trial and error (while I rip a rotator cuff in the meantime, surely). Buy it, you'd buy a new leash if it broke tomorrow. Repair that, buy the book. ... show more

    • Must read for any surfer
Format: Paperback
Took Rob’s class in person and watch his live streams. He provides so much information that it is easy to forget some of it when out in the water. This book makes a great companion to his classes or just as an initial resource to learn the fundamentals to good paddling and remind you of all the aspects to work on. Rob has helped me catch more waves with less shoulder pain and I can go days on end with less fatigue. You’ll hear it a million times, I wish I had found this info sooner. Highly recommend! ... show more

    • Must have for any surfer
Format: Paperback
The techniques and approach to paddling described in this book are a must for any surfer. More than anything else, this will improve your surfing. I’ve worked with Rob in person and reviewed his videos and I am so glad I did - the improvement for me has been a game changer. This book is well written - clear and with great pace. It’s a great compliment to his other resources but I’m sure also stands on its own. ... show more

    • This will literally save you thousands of strokes.
Format: Paperback
Surfing is mostly paddling and this book and the technical and conceptual information contained in it are game changers. The effects of improving your stroke are exponential based on the sheer number of strokes you take in any given session, multiplied by years of surfing. I used to treat my surf stroke like a swim stroke but they are very different. I owe Rob a bunch of waves. ... show more
