La Jenny, France

Better waves at mid-high tide at la Jenny. I spent 30+ min in the baïne current catching few left waves. I was very tired when I switch to another peak. The SuperFish works well ! Enjoy the girls on the beach :)

Swell was there but sandbanks not! It was a massive shorebreak. I caught few waves, some of them was 1.2m+ near 1.5m... Engaged take-off ! The new 7S SuperFish works great!

wrong time, wrong place
I expected that sunday would be the best day of the week end...But when I arrived, I just found ugly close outs. Even with the tide, it stayed bad. I caught 6 waves: the last one was the best. I just take off, a big hollow drop, a long bottom

I should have stayed
I went with my family and found good fun waves. At mid tide, it was good and I take good lefts with the fish, put some rollers and good cutbacks. not glassy but enough to surf a surfer on the left

Trip: Easter Holydays
By yann, From 2007-04-07 to 2007-04-14
I spent one week at Lacanau. Ok, it's not really far from my home but it's still good to be away. After several monthes of winter weather, the sun was shining during the week. Unfortunately, waves were small except for 2 days. I have scored

Le Porge Bordeaux, France
went down to Le Porge with my family, to taste the wine and to teach the kids to surf. Le Porge is the closest beach from Bordeaux. This wave can get some very good swell, but its also a good beginners wave. The surf school we put the kids in was fantastic, they get a weeks lessons with a very nice professional instructor. you can just drop me an email if you want any info.

Just wondering if anyone has wandered to La Fonda area or knows how this meager swell is doing.
