Hometown surf - just good vibes

GravityCartel Opening Party - video

Here's
a video showing the vibes at GravityCartel's inauguration party on
June
26th
at the 4YOU Youth Hostel in Calpe.
Some SUP, skate and scenic shots
|
Few test videos...
   
Some vids I re-edited using 'pixel motion' software allowing me to
create some extreme slow motion clips (almost too much)
As I only publish 'official' reports on my site, I recommend
joining
SurfDudeSpain at FaceBook
for those random shots and short vids (like these) I occasionally
publish there.

9 + 10 March Surf Video & Photo report!
The waves were too big at the usual spots, however surf was possible
with wrap-around waves at different spots. I filmed HD at 60 fps with
the Canon EOS 7D so make sure you watch the movie in HD mode and full
screen
|
15 January Surf Video
Another surf session with 2 meter waves and the usual riders. I tried
to film in the water armed with a tiny Mickey Mouse bodyboard but
didn't last more than 15 minutes, lesson learned... So this video
I shot safely rom the shore
|
8 January Bodyboard/Surf Video & Photos
A big north-east swell came along with the snowy weather! Mostly bodyboarders
were out there as it was tough catching these fast barrels.
Hope you enjoy my video & pics!

And just after I finished last week's video, another surf session!

wind reduced them to 1 meter. A different spot this time, with some
new riders.

New: GoPro Watercam Video, various
angles...
After a few slow motin videos, I thought it would be time for something
more upbeat. Here's a compilation of all the angles I could think
of for the 'GoPro Hero' camera attached to the kite, windsurf, boom,
footstraps, SUP, kayak, helmet, etc.... Turn on your speakers and
