'Good things come to those who wait.'
What kind of surfer are you? The one who's constantly paddling all over the line up trying to get the best waves or the one who choses a spot, sits and
waits for the bomb to come through? We all know which we'd rather be but how many of us actually have the patience to wait? Apparently nowadays people are more likely to hang on for big rewards than go for instant but
small gratification. That said, it's all dependant on how long that wait will be! So in this issue, we meet the next generation of surfers who are biding their
time but as you will see for yourselves, when the big one comes, they will grab the moment with both hands and will ride that bomb all the way through to the big time itself! It's time to go big or go home! But we're in no rush to get there – when the big time comes, we'll be ready for it!

Next Issue
Hope you enjoyed Issue Seventeen! We certainly loved putting it together! In fact we're loving it so
much right now that we've decided it's time for another special – bring on Isue 'Air'teen! Yes the
eighteenth issue is going to be focusing purely on the aerial antics that are keeping the sport of surfing at the cutting edge of extreme sports. So
get ready to be thrown into the stratosphere!
