wypeout.How to fall.

Control the situation can save your life. Last winter i did couple nuts wypeouts and more to the end season my wife was put some pression for i use the helmet and i was always trying. I did this and i was thinking why ou friend fula broke his head, and i think caus ehe didn' t jump. Sometimes is better jump, when you see you can make it and go under the wave. Hope he is well in heaven and protect us as Malik.

How was your weekend?

Came from my long way to "medsea" to where my wife parents live. Try to surf that slab but really hard and decide to go find some spots down the coast. My surprise to see this perfect left turning with the beach and alone. I wish some friends that love this kind of wave was with me in the water. But was a nice day with my wife shoting,picnic and nap on the beach.

New slab Galicia

This bodyboard wave is around Vigo area and cause i am living here now i will focus on that. Really hard take off cause sucks on the rock and is impossible to padle there. makes the wave a foam ball before you start to padle.. This shot is from local photgrapher and really nice guy:Pablo Martinez

Scotland:honeymoon and slab surf

My honeymoon days looks like a cream hair feedbacks session betwin my bro that came with us here,Adrien Toyon. Him and my wife are all day talking about their hair. We got him at Edinburg and after drive 6 hours at this bad Scotish road we arrived at Thurso. Next morning Adrien made his heat and at the afternoon we went check this spot that my friend Andrew Cotton told me. Probily was a secret spot,but after a couple minutes checking many many guys came to chcek,so is more a new spot than a secret now. Adrien was tired and he shoted this photo with a normal camera from the rocks.but you could see how close from the rocks is. Hope we make as many heats we can and with a big swell coming for the weekend,maybe anouther slab in mind!!!
