-OFFORANGE-

A handful of sessions over the UK summer with Seb Smart.

Jobe

One day of swell, a six hour wind window, the tide changing, and just when all hope is lost…

The best sessions always seem to come unexpected – the sun came out, the waves perfect but shallow, and Jobe took advantage despite the dry reef. One of those special mornings in Scotland…

Equilibrium

Focused on the figure of Andy Criere, Equilibrum is a piece of documentary where his personality and his unique vision of surfing are the protagonists. Divided into three parts that represent three colors, Blue, Red and Green, Andy tells what this way of life means to him. Surfing is not something additional, it’s something essential, a portion of his life that without it, it would be impossible to understand him.

Against the background of the island of Lanzarote, Andy’s passion for colors and nature are recorded by director Adrian Rodd. Originally from that island, Adrian brings fascination and respect for her in a genuine way and contributes all his virtues in all stages of the creation process: Direction, recording, music production and graphic design.

15 year old goes huge at Mullaghmore

15 year old French grom (?) Justin Becret went huge at Mullaghmore in Ireland yesterday. He was towed in by Sancho in a heavy session frequented by quite a few international big wave riders as well as the usual stalwarts.

“Amazing day in a line up full of legends.” He said.

Given the choice between school and getting a M bomb on the head I think I’d choose the former
