Um dia gostava de fazer uma curta espectacular sobre surf, com esta música como banda sonora. A original, claro, do Bobby Hebb. Mas a performance de James Brown neste vídeo é insuperável. _ One day I would like to make a wonderful short film about surf, with this music as soundtrack. The original from Bobby…

6am leash
Acordar às 6h da manhã para ir fazer uma surfada antes do trabalho, fazer a parte mais penosa – que é chegar ao pico – e na primeira ondinha, partir o leash é… porreiro, pá. Pelo menos sempre deu para tirar as primeiras fotos do Vasco com a sua “Paulo Jacinto”, e as primeiras ao…

porto côvo
Tivémos imensa sorte. Viemos sem destino, e encontrámos um pequeno jardim à nossa espera. Parecia desenhado para nós. Lugar para as pranchas, duche para o fim do dia, churrasco… Perfeito. O surf podia ser melhor, mas o tempo está magnífico, o que já não é mau. Entretanto, existem relatos de caos e stress por Lisboa,…

billabong girls
Another day with the Billabong girls in Bafureira, so we’ve just spent the morning checking their surf. No waves for us. In the end, it seems that Sally Fitzgibbons won the Estoril Billabong Girls Pro.

waikiki
After a magnificent Saturday morning at Bafureira, Sunday we ruined it all by going to Caparica. This time we tried a different beach, but the result was even worse, so a couple hours later we packed our stuff, and went home. It’s been a long time since I had a good morning of surf in…

bafureira
Altough Bafureira is very close to São Pedro’s beach, I had never tried to catch some waves there. It’s always a little bit more crowded than I like, and I really enjoy my little sunny spot in São Pedro. But this Saturday, São Pedro was completely flat, so we decided to try Bafureira, and I…

portuguese water dog
While Barack Obama keeps on looking for his Portuguese Water Dog, Saturday I found one surfing on São Pedro’s beach. His name was Vasco. He completely stole the show. King of the beach. I believe he managed to surf all the waves that went through that peak. Big, small, medium, rare… And there he goes…

summer time
It was a summer day, in all aspects. It was hot, sunny and almost flat. The exception was the water temperature… cold, cold, cold. Nevertheless, it was a great surfing morning, full of sun and enough waves to have fun. And once again, the break was ours. No one else on the water. In the…
