A little while that was in my mind...
At the Sickline 2009, Steve Fisher presented us his new video where he surfed some huge waves in South Africa with his brother David and Andrew Pollock.
After watch that video, Pierre Mahé (pro photographer) and I were so motivated to make something like that!!!!
At the time, I had to try my new composite Element by FLUID kayaks... an other good excuse!!!
Little problem, I don't know nothing about ocean surfing...
No matter, meeting on this Monday 8th of February at 8h30 a.m. with Jean Seb Etienne, who is a french pro surfer and knows the french Atlantic coast as his pocket!!!
We check 2 spots, the second one looks pretty good!!
Pierre Mahé, our photographer of the day arrives with Nico Fayol, this last one brings all his kayak gears with him!!!!
