From the beginning when he was a kid, to the later part of his life he was always involved in some kind of ocean endeavor. He tells his story his way and it's a down to earth read from beginning to end. I enjoyed reading his tales of surfing and sailing as I grew up very close to the same era (12 years younger than Mickey) and his generation was a step ahead of mine. I live in the Dana Point area and still surf and I can tell you that Mickey still enjoys the stoke of riding a board at 80 because he was in the line up with me a couple of weeks ago on his SUP paddling into some really nice waves at Doheny Beach! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ More Than Surfing: Lessons Learned While in and on the Water *by L***I on Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2014* At first I thought I would be disppointed after reading Gerry Lopez's "Surf Is Where You Find It ". "No Bad Waves" started slow and eventually arced into a hopeful, inspirational and warm story of Mr. Munoz's adventures on and in the water.I wasn't interested in reading about someone's youthful pranks and coming of age. I wanted tips and tricks for an older wanna be surfer. However, Mr. Munoz aged beautifully, as I turned the pages, showing a maturity that comes only with years of expereince all the while retaining his exuberance for whatever he found himself doing. He reminded me of what a life well lived could be like while doing something one loves to do. That if there's a way to do it can be done. The lesson struck me as needing to be presnt to the moment we're all in and not off in a far corner of our minds. (A lesson also in Mr. Lopez's "Surf is Where You Find It".)By the way, there's plenty of advice, tips and things to be aware of. I also liked that he pointed out the idea of being part of the ocean no matter if on a surfboard, a boat or paddle board. The imporatnt thing is just being there. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great stories from a surfing legend *by A***D on Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2014* I missed a lecture that Mickey gave recently to the Dana Point historical society. So I bought this book to learn more about a true legend in surfing culture. Since I spend a lot of time in Dana Point, I was interested in how this little town 60 miles from L.A. in Orange County became the epicenter of the surf "business" with Hobie Alter, John Severson and Bruce Brown all being based here.Mickey's stories are highly entertaining, from his days in Malibu working on the "Gidget" movies to his time with Hobie sailing catamarans. My only criticism about a otherwise excellent book is the lack of date information on the photos. Sometimes you can get an idea of the year from the cars in the background, but that is not always the case. Also, Orange County folks will know where "Poche" is (Capistrano Beach) but for folks elsewhere it might be helpful to say where it's at.All in all, a great read! I finished it in one sitting. Thank you Mickey Munoz for sharing your life experiences, and I wish I had a fraction of your skill and daring. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/6941124-no-bad-waves-talking-story-with-mickey-munoz](https://www.desertcart.be/products/6941124-no-bad-waves-talking-story-with-mickey-munoz) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
