Is there such a thing as Too much Offshore? Not with Surf Guide Algarve!

Currently the weather really does whatever she wants. Rain, sunshine and wind turning all directions too. Fun times for a surf guide! Every day is a little different at normal times, we really get all the extremes now. Today we are facing really strong wind from the east. Yet east wind is offshore on the west-coast. What brings us to the question. Is there such a thing as too much offshore? Not if you are riding with Surf Guide Algarve!

What are we riding today

Overall there is no magic board for any condition. Obviously there are certain boards that go a little bit better in certain conditions. Our vip-surf guide algarve guest, fresh of a boat trip in the Maldives, wants to keep up his momentum. Offshore wind or onshore, it really needs to be real bad to keep this guy dry. And actually that is the stoke we like to send out to the world. Gibson jr. is also joining us and we bring two of his latest models to try them out. Empty line up, peaks everywhere, lets go!

Small tubes are also tubes

Barrels, tubes, green room, whatever you like to call them, it is what we are all dreaming off. To begin with this strong wind is annoying as hell. Blind take offs, if you make it in the wave in the first place. Luckily there is a positive side of the story here. Even though the waves are relatively small, the tide is good and the wind pushes the waves more open. Small tubes are also tubes! Click here if you are ready to join one of our next adventures. Thanks for reading and sharing the good vibes!
