Monday to Sunday – busy

Lot of work and some waves during this past week. But first of al let me introduce you a little cartoon strip I’ve been busy drawing recently. The characters are two shortboarders, Reflex & Ion. In Spanish “reflexion” means “reflection” (as in deep thought), hence the name of the two main characters. Please do not pay attention to the drawing; it’s all about the idea. Here is the first entry:

Waves: Well, we’ve had swell but also our share of on-shores. And one magic day: Friday, probably the best day of this summer so far. Shame I couldn’t get a surf until late in the afternoon, when the swell had dropped lots. I’m sure there’ll be lots of good photos from this day in the next few days.

…and at home:


On-shore on Wednesday in the morning at home…


…while nice and photogenic in Galiza by Dani


…and much cleaner in Sopelana late in the afternoon (by Surf30):


No photos from Thursday (on-shore and big). On Friday it looked nice at home (turns out it was not so good due to the shapeless banks)...


it was nice and hollow in Lacanau from Yohann

…and in Galiza by Fiz_Bertels.

Yesterday (Saturday) it was small and on-shore from early in the morning and today it is big and equally on-shore, grey and cold. Apparently the waves should last –at least-until mid next week. It’s a very nice run for summer.

On the social front I missed the MIACS inauguration on Friday (but it’s on for a couple of months, so I should be able to visit it sooner and later).

Over & out.
