Gege`s world tour




Gege Brasset, our french team rider is now on his dream surftrip. He’s travelling five months to surf the best spots in the Pacific. lucky guy. He leaves us his first impressions:
" I am in a five month free surftrip around Pacific Ocean with two of my best friends, going first to Indonesia. We already have been to G-land and Lakey Peak in Sumbawa, scoring pumping wave without crowd.
In a few weeks we are going to Australia to catch up with two of our best friends, Antoine Cardonnet and Thibault Dussarat,and also to pick up some more boards from Flano.
After Oz we will fly to Tahiti and spend one month in the island, then we'll go to California and will cruise down to Mexico.
I will then end this trip in Hawaii.

We all three had a strong working time this summer to go on this adventure, it’s a dream coming true, we are living what we have deep inside since we first jumped on a surfboard, going for a half year trip with your best friend; remember endless summer, it’s our time now, we are living it!!!

So the crew, I am with Tim and Makina, easiest and funniest friends I can travel with,
Tim is 23 nice looking gentleman, with his moustache, always spreading love to everybody everywhere he is going. Also he is a really famous french longboarder, number five last year at the World Longboard Tour, and he is improving his shortboard attack on indonesian waves with my boards.

It’s so good to see him ripping the waves like this and enjoying all those feelings.

Makina is 23, strong and clever guy, he is the engineer, that’s why we call him the Machine, he is surfing better and better everyday, never afraid of how high are the waves or how shallow is the reef under his feet. Always going and always frontside, he loves trying new things,he loves spicy food but really really spicy.
So all together we have been to G-Land, Sumbawa and Bali, have spent great time with locals, have ridden fantastic waves and had times that we will never forget!!!
It’s just the beginning of our trip, buts its already an incredible journey that we are living together!!!"
