Clovis around home (video)

We could sit here watching you surf for hours, Clovis.

On a short break from the winter swells, we met up with Clovis Donizetti for some classic sessions at Côte des Basques in Biarritz. With his own sound and style, Clovis showed us his ability to turn any wave into a unique dance.

We have always loved surfing for the freedom that it gives you and the lifestyle that it used to and still does represent. Styles and personalities that emerge from distant places and then connect in a little community of surf enthusiasts that are brought together through their love of the most basic aspect of surfing: having fun.

One morning with Clovis and friends

When the cold winds of winter hit the classic buildings of Biarritz, takes away the summer eccentricity and leaves Biarritz quiet.

This is one of our favourite times of the year. Even when the days get shorter and the temperatures drop, feels good to be walking around the lonely streets, getting to know the people that live side by side peacefully on winter time.

In between winter swells, we went to visit and surf with Clovis Donizetti and his friend Thomas Lodin on the classic sand-bank of Côte des Basques.

Mornings are cold but, when the waves look like this, no one doubts on entering on the freezing waters running to be the first out there.
