Sam George talks his latest book, Child of Storms, Stories that shaped his life | The Lineup

In this reflective and wildly entertaining episode, legendary surfer, writer, and director Sam George joins The Lineup to unpack over five decades of chasing waves, meaning, and himself. With his upcoming memoir Child of Storms: A Surfing Memoir, In Progress dropping April 22nd, Sam shares the stories behind the stories—how a lifetime of surfing became a mosaic of moments that transcended simply riding waves. He opens up about everything from the formative sting of Dave Parmenter's tough love to the rare swagger of Tom Carroll, and the soul-searching honesty of writing about a failed marriage and cancer journey with his ex-wife. The duo discuss surf identity, travel, and the thrill of never feeling like you’ve worked a day when surfing is the job, and much more.
