Seal Point

Another great day in Sweden with headhigh waves, sideshore wind and a bit of current. Compared to recent sessions this one wasn't much, even though this was a worthwhile session with heaps of good rides.

Lineup

This late summer and early autumn has been amazing. We have had some epic days both in the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. If you asked me one year ago I would never believe that you could find conditions like these in Scandinavia. I would probably say "nah you are kidding me, to surf you'll have to go to Hawaii". But here we are, in little sheltered Denmark and we have had more than a handful of good sessions in one month. That is incredible, though you could get even more good days if it wasn't for the work and family responsibility. Most of the time it is only weekend surf as the weekdays are spent working. So who said that you cannot surf in Denmark?

Must be viewed large. It's a shame, this shot had been much better taken from down the line.

Aerial time!!!

And here is the proof, we got headhigh to over-headhigh waves.

Here's some more pics

Lets hope that the autumn and winter offers similar conditions.

Tomorrow I'm off to Portugal for 10 days. See you ;)
