Talk surfboards and big news

While a professional surfer will surf better on the back of a cooler box* then most other surfers on normal boards. *Italo learned surfing like this. Surfboards are the only thing that is in between us and the waves. Add to this that a good surfboard will not make you a better surfer, but a good surfboard can indeed make your surf experience much better. Over the years as a surf guide and long before I have the chance to surf many different boards. Obviously I am not the best surfer in the world, but I know really well what I like and do not like on a board and can also explain why. Surfing every day in all sorts of conditions, this made me a good test-driver for the guys at Gibson Surfboards. Who may seem new in the Algarve, but have a very long shaping history back in California.

Some more shared stokes

As been mentioned before, shared stokes are the best stokes. Armed with two really colourful boards and a fun looking forecast its even hard to wait for the next day. Surf Guide Algarve is joined by a new guest *who surfed the Abu Dabi surf pool last week – why not? Plus a VIP who is keen to challenge himself a little bit. No one out, powerful waves with some real barrels for those who are ready. Beliche definetly not the easiest spot in the region but once you get a good one it really pays off. Good waves and bad wipe-outs all get cheered on and we all have an incredible surf.
