Surfer was an American monthly periodical focused on surfing and surf culture, founded in 1962 by noted surfer, writer, photographer, artist and humorist John Severson (1933–2017).[2][3] The magazine folded in 2020.
Surfer began as a quarterly publication, then a bi-monthly, subsequently becoming a monthly.[3] When Severson sold Surfer in the late 1960s to For Better Living,[4] the magazine had around 100,000 active world-wide subscribers.[2]
The magazine changed ownership and management numerous times over its history. American Media (AMI) purchased the magazine in 2019[5] from TEN: Publishing, a division of Adventure Sports Network (ASN).
The magazine's last editor-in-chief was Todd Prodanovich and its photo editor was Grant Ellis.
