Description:

Back to Le pin sec. Solid swell. Hesitation between here and northern spots such as Le Gurp, L'Amélie. But finally, this was the best choice. A surfer coming back from thenorth said it was too small for Le Gurp and not good at Soulac.

Took 5 big waves: 4 lefts and 1 right. Solid (overhead), fast. A continuous current from N to S. Paddeling all time. The shorereak was very impressive. Had to pass thru :(

Good session! Maybe the last one of 2008 cos it's getting cold...
