GREAT SESSION @ North Shore Spain

This weekend our riders Rui Ferreira, Simon Murphy and Fran Aguilar scored a very good session somewhere in the spanish north coastline. There was a very big swell and the conditions were too heavy in the spot. Every set, the lips got thicker and ticker and the ramps more vertical. The "in-the-air" take-offs were nearest the only way to go for any wave. Here some pics of the session

RESPECT XPERIMENT, by Eric Gamez

When our frenchie guay received his GoPro he suddenly realized of the enormous potential of this lil gadget. So he started to try new angles and get bigger sessions for recording really crazy images, as you´ll see very very soon. The result is insane. Here some framegrabs:

Nuno Cardoso @ Philippines

Respect's free rider Nuno Cardoso went over to the Philippines on one of the best thyphoon seasons of the last decades. His mission was to explore different islands trying to find uncrowded and uncharted waves. Here's just a little and exclusive glimpse of what he found over there and make sure you stay tunned for an upcoming podcast video featuring these frames of footage.

Mundaka´s long hollow barrels are back in action. Here´s a grab of Simon Murph locking into an inside sidewinder on the first swell of the season! The shot was taken by mythical Cali boy ´Lil´ Todd who happened to be in the line up shooting pro stand-ups. Cheers Toddy keep up the good work!”
