Guides
Short, original guides to go with the games: the thinking behind a good guess, and the real places behind the surf spots you ride. Every fact in them is checked, and each one lists its sources at the end.
The guides
- How to estimate anything: Napkin math, the Fermi way: break a big question into small ones, anchor on numbers you know, round boldly and sanity-check. Three worked examples and the common mistakes.
- Huntington Beach: Surf City USA: A guide to Huntington Beach, California: how its beach-break waves work, the pier and its many rebuilds, the end-of-pier diner, the US Open of Surfing, the Surf City USA name, and tips for a visit.
