We're stoked to announce the publication of a ripper of a book that the ASL backroom boffins have been bringing to a slow boil over the last month or so.

After being spellbound by the magic of Teahupo'o this year – from the comp running in six to ten foot perfection to the 'Code Red' tow day-of-days – we knew it all deserved to be preserved in history with a special book.

Editor and Designer Gra Murdoch trawled through no less than 12,000 images from Teahupo'o, and combined with writer extraordinaire Nick Carroll to craft a 144-page, no-advertisement balltearer of a coffee-table book.

And if that's not enough, Billabong chipped in with a specially-made DVD featuring never-before-released super-slo-mo footage of the world's craziest big wave charging session.

Following are a couple of spreads to give you a taste. Get it now for Christmas.
