French connection

So I've found myself now in the surf town of Lacanau, about an hr from Bourdeaux, France for the 6* QS event. Arrived yesterday, 4 flights later, boards actually made it with me for a change but no bag though. Pretty amazed the boards got here, hopefully the bag shows up soon enough. So my marathon trip has commenced, this being the first of 2 stints to France, just a week here then over the atlantic to a 3 day holiday at my friend's house in North Carolina and then onto California...

The surf here is FLAT! They just put the comp on hold now... welcome to France in summer... hahaha pretty funny actually, it's either 1 ft and flat or 8 ft and closing out here, hardly ever a happy medium. But all's good, they making it happen around the tides here. Staying with Rudy Palmboom Jnr for the week, Royden was supposed to have been with us too but had to pull out the event with a eye injury.

Will post up if anything interesting happens here, should be a fun week, hopefully we get a little bump in swell and things go good. Rock on where ever you are! Boom!
