Similarly, before I go out to ride swells, I make sure I’m all pumped up and in the mood for surfing with music. As if the idea of spending an alchemy hour in the blue sea is not enough to stir up the adrenaline junkie in me, I still make sure I have my iPod and playlist ready before I head out to the beach.
Here are some of Christopher Sugrue’s favorite surf music:

Now, these are just some of them. And these songs don’t necessarily have to be about surfing. But when I listen to these songs, there’s no stoppin’ me from surfin’.
