Frozen Ocean

In a months time I will be embarking on a mission that will prove to be the start of a hunger within me that I hope to feed, at least, once a year. On the 27th of November I will be boarding a flight that will be heading straight to the country where people eat paella for breakfast, where bulls get beaten up by children and where people fall asleep in the afternoon. Yes, I will be flying to Spain and start what hopes to be the start of a lifetime of traveling.

Although I hyped it up, the truth is that after 2 hours of being in Madrid's airport I shall board another flight,but, this one will be going to Portugal. The reason for my travels taking me to Portugal is because of the wave known as Supertubos. Some say this wave is the European version of Pipeline and that gets me drooling to think that I am going to be standing upon the shores of Peniche, the place in Portugal where said wave is found,  staring at a wave that resembles one of the most famous waves in the world. Not to mention that Supertubos itself carries some heavy street cred based on the fact that the ASP recently held a contest there.

I will have 5 days to get Supertubos amazing before I head back to Madrid to meet up with some of my Home Boys from South Africa, who are flying in from South America after the World Bodyboarding Games. We shall group and then scrammble to which ever terminal it is that will get us on the 1st flight to Las Palms de Gran Canaria for a whole month, and that is when the fun will start!

To accompany this post I have Sourced some photos of the almighty Supertubos. Enjoy
