Antes do SLB… uma homenagem ao Frederico Gil.
Um jogo bem emocionante, numa final inesperada frente ao Albert Montañes, no Estoril Open. Muitos parabéns.

Fantastic video about the surf in Madeira, and the lost wave at Jardim do Mar, considered by Surfer Magazine to be the best big wave point break in the world

jornal i

The first cover of the new newspaper “i”. www.ionline.pt

The biggest surprise for me was the photo on the cover. The black and white photo, on a very black and white cover gives a dark mood to the all set. But maybe it’s a way to stand out on the colorful newsstand. Anyway, the photo could have better quality.

On the inside, I really like the simplicity of some pages, the use of photography, colors and the lettering. I like the idea of the urban sketches, but I think that could be better integrated on the newspaper. And I was expecting the use of more information graphics on the first number…

Overall… pretty cool. Now, let’s read the news.

What others are saying on Twitter http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%23ijornal.

[UPDATE]
You can read an analysis of the newspaper’s website on The Lake.
Meanwhile, I’ve taken a closer look… I like the graphic similarities with Monocle (no sarcasm).

SKATING IN LISBON

Few cities have a “skatepark” with a view like this. Inspiring.

SALSICHA DO MANTORRAS

Well, it’s Mantorras again. I really admire him, but…
A few years ago, Mantorras had a sponsorship thing with a sausages company called Izidoro. The slogan: “O sabor que eu adoro”, meaning “The taste I adore”. I can’t thing of anything more stu…strange. Great marketing!

SUNDAY SURF

Paulo Ribeiro — Mon, 29 Dec 2008 13:13:06 +0000

After a mini season surfing in São Pedro, Sunday we decided to go back to Costa da Caparica in a search for better waves.
The conditions were good, small waves, good wind, not too crowded… and if it weren’t for a small leg injury, it would have been a great surfing morning.
But when there’s no surf, there’s a great opportunity to take some photos, and try my (new) Panasonic TZ5 (finally I have a decent camera to take some surf shots).
The guys in the water were getting what they wanted, so I also got some good pictures, and the chance to test different settings.
In the photo above, the mitical surfer (ehehe) Vasco PM striking a pose for the camera.
