WHY SURFERS BUY IT
Building upon the chapter from the best-selling The Stormrider Guide Europe, this guide will cover all the coast of France from the La Manche (Channel) coast in the north, down through the long sands of Biscay on the Atlantic, then over to the Mediterranean for the increasingly popular southern French coast and the island of Corsica. The Stormrider Surf Guide France will stick to the proven formula of trusted, dependable surf spot descriptions, coupled with beautiful, informative photos. It will be the only show in town, yet to ensure maximum market penetration, we are offering surfers great value, with a low retail price of €14.95 | £12.95 | $19.95 that will make buying this book a very easy choice for any surfer heading to France.

Finally, France will have its own surf guide...
Low
Pressure are stoked to announce the latest addition to the best-selling
Stormrider Surf series.
France is the capital of European surfing and one of the most important surf nations in the world. It has grown exponentially in all areas and now supports a huge population of enthusiastic surfers, surf schools, surf shops and is the beating heart of the European surf industry. France is long overdue and will finally have a guide that does justice to this hugely rich and varied coastline. The Stormrider Surf Guide Europe regularly appears on top of the bestseller lists, and The Stormrider Surf Guide France will undoubtedly do the same.
The Guide will be Bilingual French and English texts, attracting a huge Francophone market that your traditional advertising methods just can’t reach. Considering SW France is the centre of European surf industry, can you afford not to be seen in the publication that puts you on the map and busts down the language barrier?
There is a limited number of DPS Ad spots that will slot between the regional chapters of the book and then the traditional and hugely popular Stormrider classified section which includes the essential "on the map" yellow marker.
