Chris Nelson is one of Europe’s leading surf travel writers, with his co-author Demi Taylor (and their combined surf travel experience of over 30 years) they have written five books on surfing. Chris started surfing in the mid-eighties on the frigid reefs of England’s northeast coast. He founded and edited Asylum and Freeride, two of the UK’s most influential boardsports magazines. Having dreamt up the idea of Surfing Europe on a long road trip, Chris and Demi packed up their desk jobs, packed up their van and undertook a year of intensive on-the-road research – surfing, exploring and documenting the whole of Europe’s Atlantic coastline. The resulting groundbreaking first edition was published by Footprint in 2004 to critical acclaim. Chris and Demi have co-authored the best-selling Surfing Britain & Ireland and Surfing the World.
