5.30am.

La seule et unique alarme de mon portable suffira à me sortir du lit en un temps record. Plutôt rare. Moins d’une heure après, les boards enfourchées sur le 2 roues, nous traçions vers l’Est au rythme des poulets à klaxonner et des trous dignes de crevasses à esquiver.

La lumière émerge à la vitesse de notre excitation grandissante, saillant les palmiers nonchalants éparpillés au milieu de terres enfumées d’un rare brouillard.

Ce moment très précis restera le souvenir d’un matin hors du temps, au sein duquel le sentiment du « tout parfait » envahira les vagues qui suivront.

The French band Phoenix are singing in their song “Telefono“ and express pretty exactly what crosses my mind, when I am thinking about Italy today. My parents used to travel to Italy with me, when my brother and I were kids every summer so probably that helped to lay the foundation for my weakness for the “La dolce vita“. Several years later I am still romancing over the beauty and diversity this country offers and try to capture them in my pictures.

OUT OF AFRICA

KURT BAUER

To me, one of the best things about surfing is the fact, that it leads you to places where you wouldn’t have been to without it. Incredible wildlife, deserted streets, endless desolate beaches, charming shops you had not entered if you wouldn’t have needed surf wax again. This time the journey led us first to South Africa and later also to Namibia. Two countries, which doubtless offer some of the best waves in the world, but in my view so much more.

The movie “Circle of the Sun“ takes you on an almost surreal journey to Norway. It describes one Circle of the sun. One day of magic. Steep mountains,the ocean, the sun and the aurora borealis.

MALLORCA

The first thing to explain about surfing in Mallorca is that we have wind-swell based waves. The island wasn’t traditionally known for surfing and the community only really started in the late ‘80s with a handful of people.
