Throughout the course of this thesis, we have each fought our own battles. I will never forget the excitement you would show whenever I had something new to talk about with my research. Your interest in what I was doing, how I was doing it and why, never faded. Every milestone, we shared with the same excitement. Even when nothing was going right in your world, you always showed the strength to push on and put on a smile when I had something to say. Your strength and courage to keep on going was my greatest motivation to finish this. I wish I could share this celebration with you.

The first draft of each manuscript was written by the candidate and James was then responsible for responding to the editing suggestions of his co-authors. The co-authors, Christopher Richards, Diane Riddiford-Harland, Jeremy Sheppard, John Whitting, Ming-Chang Tsai and myself were responsible for assisting in study design, data interpretation and editing the manuscripts. James has been solely responsible for submitting each manuscript for publication to the relevant journals, and he has been primarily in charge of responding to reviewer’s comments, with assistance from his co-authors. James R. Forsyth Julie R. Steele 26 August 2020 26 August 2020 iv Acknowledgements Julie Steele, I have said this before and I must say it again – I have never met someone with as much passion as you. I feel incredibly fortunate to have met you and had you guide me along this journey. There aren’t many supervisors like you and I am acutely aware of how much you’ve done for me, and for what you seemingly choose to continue to do for me. Jeremy Sheppard, you once said to me that you didn’t think you did enough for me within the scope of this thesis, to which I must disagree entirely. Your input from start to finish has been invaluable, providing that extra context from a practitioner’s point of view. Although I didn’t get to work as closely with you as I would have liked, I am incredibly grateful for the opportunities that you have provided me. Diane Riddiford- Harland, you have been the steadying hand along the way. You’ve always been there to help out and have always had a positive attitude. I am extremely thankful for all your considered feedback and direction throughout this thesis. John Whitting, your enthusiasm about this project is contagious, and your input has always been outstanding. You’ve helped me out with a lot of conceptual issues and the strength of many of the papers in this thesis are perfect examples of that. Chris Richards and Ming-Chang Tsai, both of you have been a great help with specific aspects of this thesis and I hope I have been able to convey my great appreciation to you both. You have each helped me to get the most value out of the data I have and helped convey the unique nature of this project in a clear and impactful way. Everyone in the Biomechanics Research Laboratory who have been along for the ride, it has been great to have you around for support, technical assistance and just a laugh or a distraction. You all banded together to help me when I needed it and I am forever grateful for that. Greg, Dad, Grandpa, Grandma, Nan and Pop – thank you for your constant love and support over the years. You’ve all been there to help when I needed it and have always shown so much interest in my research. v Camilla, I honestly do not think I could have got through this without you. You have been there to support me, day-in and day-out, helping me keep up consistent work and bringing me up when I am down. I hope that I can (and do) provide the same support for you as you finish your thesis, and that my gratitude for your support is as clear to you as it is to me. vi Abstract Background: Surfing manoeuvres such as aerials have emerged as an impactful way for competitive surfers to significantly change the outcome of a heat, providing them with a competitive advantage when performed successfully. Although these manoeuvres have drawn some attention from the scientific community, no research has been undertaken to comprehensively evaluate the performance of aerials and to identify how they can be trained for. Research Question: The overall aim of this thesis was to systematically evaluate the performance of aerial manoeuvres in surfing in order to develop evidence-based recommendations, which could be used to improve aerial performance and training in skilled surfers. Methods: A series of studies were conducted in three parts to achieve this overall thesis aim. Firstly, Part I explored the current state of wave-riding performance (Chapter 2), as well as establishing the value of wave-riding manoeuvres to scoring a surfer’s performance during elite surfing competitions (Chapter 3).

Although the act of riding a wave started as a religious/cultural tradition, surfing rapidly transformed into a global water sport. The popularity of surfing is the result of events, innovations, influential people (http://www.surfertoday.com/surfing/9754­the­most­influential­people­to­ the­birth­of­surfing), and technological developments. Early surfers had to challenge the power of the oceans with heavy, finless surfboards. Today, surfing has evolved into a high­tech extreme sport, in which hydrodynamics and materials play vital roles. Surfboard craftsmen have improved their techniques; wave riders have bettered their skills. The present and future of surfing can only be understood if we look back at its glorious past. From the rudimentary "caballitos de totora" to computerized shaping machines, there's an incredible trunk full of memories, culture, achievements and inventions to be rifled through.

  • Surfing, Gender and Politics: Identity and Society in the History of South African Surfing Culture in the Twentieth-Century
    Surfing, gender and politics: Identity and society in the history of South African surfing culture in the twentieth-century. by Glen Thompson Dissertation presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Albert M. Grundlingh Co-supervisor: Prof. Sandra S. Swart Marc 2015 0 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the author thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 8 October 2014 Copyright © 2015 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved 1 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract This study is a socio-cultural history of the sport of surfing from 1959 to the 2000s in South Africa. It critically engages with the “South African Surfing History Archive”, collected in the course of research, by focusing on two inter-related themes in contributing to a critical sports historiography in southern Africa. The first is how surfing in South Africa has come to be considered a white, male sport. The second is whether surfing is political. In addressing these topics the study considers the double whiteness of the Californian influences that shaped local surfing culture at “whites only” beaches during apartheid. The racialised nature of the sport can be found in the emergence of an amateur national surfing association in the mid-1960s and consolidated during the professionalisation of the sport in the mid-1970s.

Professional female surfers, in particular, are drawing greater media attention than ever before and are seen by surf companies as the perfect vehicle to develop this global industry further. Because lifestyle branding has been developed as a modern marketing strategy, this thesis examines the lifestyle marketing practices of the three major surfing companies Billabong, Rip Curl and Quicksilver/Roxy through an investigation of the sponsorship experiences of fifteen sponsored female surfers. The research paradigm guiding this study is an interpretive approach that applies Doris Lessing’s (1991) concept of conformity and Michel Foucault’s (1979) notion of surveillance and the technologies of the self. An ethnographic approach was utilised to examine the main research purpose, namely to: determine the impact of lifestyle marketing by Billabong, Rip Curl and Quicksilver/Roxy on sponsored female surfers.
