This award winning film profiles surfer Léa Brassy, who grew up in northern France. At 17, she moved to southern France for the warm water surf but then her nomadic lifestyle took her to Unstad in the Lofoten Islands in Northern Norway. Trading in her bikini for a thick wetsuit, she connected with the surrounding mountains, Arctic surf, simple living and she has been there since. Whether it’s paddling hard for a wave, or chasing after a passion – Léa reminds us that if the timing is right, we have to Catch It.

This year’s Welsh National Surfing Championships will be held the same weekend at the usual venue of Freshwater West, Pembrokeshire. It is co-sponsored by Rusty, FCS and Gorilla (through Holysport UK) and MiPost Mailing Solutions, Cardiff.
In a statement President Huw John said: “We’re delighted that following last year’s successful sponsorship deal that Rusty, FCS and Gorilla will again be supporting our Flagship Event, along with MiPost who already sponsor Glamorgan Cricket Team. It’s fantastic that the WSF is able to attract sponsorship from MiPost who recognise the appeal of our sport to their business and the non surfing public. We would like to thank both Liam O’Shea (Holysport UK) and Ken Vaughan (Mipost) for their generosity and commitment to surfing in Wales.”
