Signed copies of Marc Andreini's "The Gift"

Signed messages differ copy to copy.

The Gift, by Marc Andreini, a California surfboard shaper whose experience spans from the 60’s to the present, is a 221 page, 75,000 word, 8 1/2” x 11” book with over 100 never before seen images plus a handful of surfing’s most iconic shots.

The Gift is a collage of stories which covers the entire arc of the evolution of the surfboard: from its origins in Hawaii to the modern world. It promises to take you on a journey that parallels and sometime collides with the surfboard industry. Along the way Andreini details what he has learned from the ancient Hawaiians, Tom Blake, Bob Simmons, George Greenough, and the innovators and madmen of surfing. The Gift also includes testimonials and philosophy from 19 of surfing’s most prestigious and prolific pioneers and practitioners who share their personal stories, photographs, and surf culture musings.

Beach House

The Beach House has been serving the spirit and romance of surfing since 1962. The shop first opened in Summerland, CA just four miles from The Queen of the Coast, Rincon Point. Needless to say, the shop was closed when the surf was up. Over 50 years later we’re still serving the same surfers and their families, although we don’t close for waves these days.

In-House Brands

We offer 4 in house brands. Santa Barbara Surf Shop, Beach House, Apocalypse Now (Yater), and Owl Surfboards Santa Barbara. We also like to put the spotlight on proven and up and coming surf lifestyle brands for you to discover.

Testimonials

★★★★★

I ordered a Yater t-shirt on 7-14. I received this shirt on the 16th. It was nicely wrapped with a personal thank you from Ethan. It was a nice touch and when I need a special gift again, Beach House will be my go-to. Thank you.
