Crush Surfing Magazine Issue #001

Crush Surfing Magazine was born in Cornwall out of cold car parks, leaky wetsuits, and endless coffee. It celebrates real surf culture, not the polished, commercial version, but the one found on cliff tops, in board bags, and in stories shared around fire pits and pubs worldwide.

Issue #001 dives into everyday surfing: local legends, cold-water crews, groms with borrowed cameras, and the unsung heroes who keep the culture alive, alongside features with names we all look up to and the next generation shaping what’s next. Inside you’ll find a throwback with Tom Servais, Tom Lowe’s journey from Cornwall to Nazaré, Maren Surfboards’ hand-shaping craft, localism in Lanzarote, and a chat with legendary commentator Chris Cote, plus more.

Printed to the highest standard, Crush is a premium surf magazine that shows surfing as it truly is: authentic, raw, and deeply connected. Whether you’re a lifelong charger, a weekend cruiser, or still dreaming of your first paddle out, Issue #001 is your invitation into the global surf community.
