New book spotlights surfboards
By Mike Gordon
Advertiser Staff Writer
Sumpter's passion for surfboards, from their shape to the artwork they display, is at the heart of his new book "Today's Top Surfboards" (Shiffer Publishing, $29.95).
Each of its 159 pages bears one or more photos of beautiful boards — enough to make any surfer swoon.
On a really good day in the surf, you have to thank the board. "It shares the wave with you," the 60-year-old Sumpter writes, "and that gift you've found is priceless."
