Hurley Longboarderley 2010

The Hurley Longboarderly was held last saturday, the 22nd of August on the reef of Klitmoller, Denmark. The event was a great sucess and gathered the best cruisers of Scandinavia. I had the pleaseure to be judging and commentating the event alongside Hurley team rider Mor Maluco.
The waves weren´t epic, but still very contestable and all the competitors had a good time. Local knowledge proved to be the key element as Klitmoller´s favourite grommet Peter Stainfath, 14 won all his heats to take the Men´s open division title, leaving behind his older bro Casper in second place. In the Women´s division Hurley Team rider Vahine Itchner showed some progressive surfing to take the title. In the SUP expression session Casper Stainfath showed his dominance in the sport and took out the title.
After the contest we gathered at NASA surf club for some food and ping-pong comp. Even though Pinho gave it a good go and showed his Divisa skills, it was Jesper Freya who won the ping-pong tournament, defending his 2009 title.
Thanks to all the sponsors: Hurley, Sticky Bumps, Cult and NASA.

Dad scored our backyard-secret spot - aka Johnny´s point - last week in Brazil. 55 years old and charging more than you.

Sophisticated Surfin'

Im back to Copenhagen facing the books for - hopefully - one last time before getting my uni degree. But Im really looking forward for the next couple of months as I´ll be travelling around Europe and doing loads of fun contests. For now check out this litlle clip made by my cousin Svenn Aage early last year for the night club/coffee bar Bikkini Barista, in Santos - Brasil. The idea was unite all concepts of the house: surf, coffee and party. Surfing in that thing was harder than I had imagined, but the coffee was so good.

Agger Situation

Summer in Denmark means small but very satisfying surf. Never before has the water been so warm here. Yesterday I had a nice little session with Mor Meluka, Ollie, Jonas “Muhh” and all the underground grommets at Agger. Thanks Simon Lauritsen, for the pics!

Summer Time.

I returned to Denmark a couple of weeks ago to meet up with my family and do some contests. I had just enough time to drop some stuff at home before hitting the road again, but now with the Wolthers gang. The plan was to make a family attack on the second stop of the Danish Surf Tour. In total we were 8 Wolthers ready to battle in the uncommonly warm waters of Klitmoller against the best Nordic surfers. Unfortunately Mother Nature didn’t cooperate with the waves, and the contest was called off.
Instead, the event organizers – namely Mike - decided to hold stand-up paddle races – with a team challenge race and an individual “long” distance race. In the team division, the Wolthers team was formed by my litlle bro Jonas, my dad, our newest family member- Leandro Rasta-man Wolthers and myself. Even though we have only paddled on a few occasions before we gave it a good go and came in second place, behind the Klitmoller-locals, led by Jonas “muhh” man. On the individual race I had a bad start, falling off my board after colliding with other racer. But I managed to come back into it and place a pretty cool second place – once again.
This was my first time racing on SUP´s and I loved it. Differently from surf contests, where the winner is decided by subjective analysis, there is no secret in deciding who wins a SUP race. I liked this thing so much that I’m joining the Danish team for the Stand Up Paddling World Cup in Hamburg at the end of August.
Other than that I’ve been staying with my family and enjoying the Danish summer. At this moment im on my way back to Klitmoller where the plan is to stay the rest of the summer training, drinking coffee with the Hurley crew, and giving a couple of surf Lessons before the contests begin.
Shaka!
