I’ve lagged a little on my last blog post for Spain. Mainly because of the lack of internet over seas, but also because my computer was on the fritz and had a serious power meltdown. The last leg of our Europe trip was Pantin Spain! After an awesome week in Italy and a flat spell in the Azores I was seriously ready for some surf. We had a super cute little house up on the hill that overlooked the contest, and even though we didn’t score super great waves we still had an amazing time… Check out the video for proof! ~ ENJOY ~
So after a super eventful week in the Azores, we headed off to Italy. Unfortunately it was way more of a mission than the video alludes. We missed flights, barley caught trains and just about stumbled over every piece of baggage that we had with us. more with pics
Here is hanging in the Azores Part II: Like I said before, we were having too much fun and way too much action to cram into one single video post. More fun nights; bowling, site seeing and other stupid stuff. These videos include, but are not limited with the following guest appearances: ME, Rosy Hodge, Sage, Erikson, Laura Enever, Josh Kerr, Jay Davies, Jay Quinn, Megan Hosseini, Naje Malamed, Alana Blanchard, Bethany Hamilton and many more, thanks to all for the great times in Portugal!
So we came for a surf contest / surf trip to the Azore Islands in Portugal. The surf has been unsuccessful, heat wise and training wise… in other words DEAD FLAT! But our sight seeing tourist shoes have been in full throttle with not stop action. Of all places to come without waves we have not had one boring moment to spare… check out the fun, and this is only the half way marker! ~CHECK OUT PICTURES HERE~
The US Open has come and gone and it may have been the fastest and most hectic week of my life this year. But I would do it ALL over again because it was oh-so much fun. I wish I could have made this video longer and captured all the madness that went down. But I’m sorry to say that I just didn’t have the energy or more importantly the time. So here’s a tidbit of what I got ~ ENJOY!
I just got back home from my summer vacation with the family in South Lake Tahoe and it was AMAZING!!!
We scored the most beautiful weather, and stayed at the most beautiful house right on the lake. I bronzed, waked boarded and even won a little mullah at the casino. I hope we go back next year!
Body Glove flew us on down to Nicaragua for a little fun in the sun time to get surf and lifestyle shots. I picked up a tan / sunburn on my way out and we got to check out Holly Beck’s new home. To sum up the trip: Cheyne Magnusson, Maria Gonzalez, Holly B and I all sweated it out in the 90% humidity, surfing all day in bath water and made some interesting creepy crawler friends for 5 days
So I’ve been lagging a little on my blog videos considering I’ve been home, re-packed and have already landed in another country. But I’ve finally found some time here in Nicaragua while it’s windy to put together my France footage for you guys to check out, so here’s some clips of all us girls in Hossegor, cruising town and hangin at the comp site!
We didn’t have long to adjust to jet lag, unpack or let alone wax and fin up our boards before the contest started. First stop was checking in at the comp site and then —- well, you’ll see what else happens through out the day!
Trains, Planes and Automobiles…add a smart car and a luggage cart to the mix, and you have summed up the 24 hours it took me and my two BBF’s on tour (Clair and Sage) to get to Europe. It was a mission as usual, but ALWAYS FUN
