"Big Juice is a must read for anyone who wants to experience the extreme passion and ultimate terror of riding the world's biggest waves." --Ricky Grigg, former world surfing champion and big wave pioneer "Punctuated by absolutely stunning photography of these monstrous waves-and the intrepid souls who embrace the challenge of taming them-this is a glimpse into a totally alien world, and the incredible force nature brings to bear. It's a celebration, a warning, a tribute, a memorial, and a historical document all at once." --Sacramento Book Review "A solid collection of big wave anecdotes, [including] an unvarnished, adrenaline-packed narrative from hellman Shane Dorian, recounting one of the most traumatic beatings he ever took while surfing... Solid, blending surfing entertainment with the simple power of stories about massive swells... For surfers who enjoy books in the 'talking story' genre, you won't be disappointed by The Big Juice." --TheWatermansLibrary.com
