Few years ago, a wave has been found in Africa, a long very long hollow wave. Each and every shot i saw from this place drove me crazy.
So i started to check how to get there, which wind could be good, which swell would work…
Lost in the desert, The wave rolls directly from the roaring forties. Sharks, seals, permits : A real challenge to get there, and to score.
You need a specific forecast, and sometimes it won't happen. I was dreaming of that wave every day. When i saw that swell coming i couldn't sleep anymore, plane ticket, guide, permit… 2 days later i was there. Like in my dreams i had the pleasure to play with it...
