"From the idea to the completed book was one hell of a voyage... Much like the way waves always look smaller from the beach than they really are... All over Europe, experienced locals had to be found and interviewed in 12 languages. Thus over 1,600 spots came together and we finally had to draw detailed maps for more than 35,000km of coastline. Meanwhile the idea had to be presented to almost 100 of the world's best photographers and countless amateurs. We collated 15,000 photos and selected the best 1,000 for The Guide. Europe's meteorology and oceanography had to be analysed from a kiter's and windsurfer's perspective. Last but not least we also had to introduce the people, culture and landscapes of all featured countries and offer handy travel tips. After more than 3 years of work, we know why such a guide had never been compiled before.
