A Call for Submissions



Here is your chance to add a significant publication to your resume: Consider submitting surfing-related original research, case report, literature reviews, photos, stories, conference updates or reports, or letters to the editor to “Surfing Medicine” – the journal of the Surfer’s Medical Association.

Founded in 1988 by Dr. Mark Renneker and other pioneers in the field of Surf-Medicine, the Journal is being tweaked and modernized for the digital age. Like the modern quad fish we hope to retain the charm and character of the original paper version of the Journal, while improving performance and down-the-line speed.

So, impress your friends and family, wow your boss, and leave your legacy in the annals of surf medicine by submitting a worthy article for publication. If the article passes a rigorous “pier review” – (deemed interesting by surfers hanging around the pier) it will be considered for publication.

Categories include:

  • Original research
  • Case reports
  • Review articles
  • Current concepts
  • Images in Surf Medicine
  • Travel stories
  • Conference reports
  • Original artwork/photos
  • Interviews
  • Book reviews
