Longboarding: Surfing on Asphalt?

Thursday, June 30, 2016
A life far from the coast or a flat ocean can sometimes keep us away from the waves and from the fun of being on a surfboard. That's when longboard skate comes into play.
I'm still a newbie of this kind of board, but every surfer would agree when I say there is a strong link between surfing on a surfboard and surfing on a longboard skate.

Today Ryan, a longboarder for the longboard skates brand Magneto Longboard, is explaining us in detail this strong relationship between the two practices and how we can make the most of our longboard skate session (even if we are beginners!).

Learning to skate

Tuesday, March 10, 2015

This past weekend we have been blessed with such a beautiful spring sunny weather. Totally unexpected. But we really needed some warmth and light after almost four weeks of rain in a row... Welcome to Basque Country folks!

Anyway, I thought it could be the right moment for me to dust off my boyfriend's longboard skate and ask him to teach me. I admit it was not the first time on a skateboard for me, but it had been such a long time since the last ride.

I had so much fun! Starting slowly, at the end I was really enjoying some little more speed. If you can actually call it this way ;)

Andrea also took me on a video, but I care about you (and I got some kind of reputation, you know!) so I won't put it on-line. However, if the best skater is the one having the most fun (busted, I stole this quote from surfing), I can say I'm quite a pro! ;)

Plus, If you haven't noticed yet, I'm wearing these super cool Akela Surf leggings. I love them because you can wear them in and out of the water. With some heels for a sleeker look, with your everyday sneakers to create a casual outfit or with your favorite bikini. So, basically you can live with them on!
They can definitely have a place on my list of tips for packing light during the next surftrip... Just saying! ;)


So, here is to sunny days, boards, lots of fun and cool outfits!

I hope you guys had a wonderful weekend!

xx
