Description:

It was very very cold. With Loig, we were stuck in the fog. We jumped into the water and discovered powerful waves. Hard to take, fast to surf.

It was so cold that the waves literally smoked !

I took off on a long left : I avoid the tube but the run was so fast ! My best wave.

Then the fog due to the cold came in : it was very hard to paddle baxk as I couldn't see at more than 10m.

After 1h30, the size of swell increased. After a long right, I didn't been able to paddle back and went out. Lack of luck : 15mn after, the fog diseapeared.

hmmm..
