SW424 features our annual Surfing World’s 50 Most Interesting list. It’s a front-to-back snapshot of the surfing today, featuring profile stories by Derek Hynd, Nick Carroll, Lauren Hill, Steph Gilmore, Dave Rastovich, Jamie Brisick, Jed Smith, Sean Doherty and more. Wanna take a guess who finished number one?
 
Depending on which way you look at it, surfing has never been more interesting… or less. But good luck trying to put surfing today in a box. It’s simultaneously moving
