From the golden beaches of Durban to the thunderous waves of Hawaii's North Shore, Godfather of the Waves charts the extraordinary life of Mike Larmont - the man who shaped South African surfing in every sense of the word.

Raised on South Beach, Larmont's ocean odyssey began with borrowed surf mats and a dream. By the time he was a teenager, he was hand-shaping boards with a breadknife, launching a movement that would define a generation. His story surges from the heady surf culture of the 1960s and '70s - a time of wild waves, wild parties and fierce freedom - through the challenges of sporting isolation in the 1980s, to the renaissance that followed.

Along the way, Larmont became a world traveller and entrepreneur: making connections with local and international legends, manufacturing boards and other surfing gear, running the local franchise of global brands such as Rip Curl, co-founding Zigzag magazine, spearheading the rise of windsurfing in South Africa, and coaching South African surfers in world championships. His journey is one of grit and grace - from underground shaper to international icon, surviving shootouts, wipeouts and the relentless tides of change.

Told with honesty, humour and heart, Godfather of the Waves captures the untamed spirit of surfing and the soul of a man who never stopped chasing the next perfect ride.
