Shaping boards in another country for a different bunch of surfers and wave conditions is one one the things that give's me a buzz about my Job,also taking in the cultures of the different countries adds to that to make it all a very rewarding experience.Rocking up to France 2 weeks ago I was thrown straight into the Fete de Bayonne which is a 5 day festival held in the Basque region of France.The locals take this pretty serious and the atmosphere during the festival is great,lots of wine,food and good times.I caught up with lots of friends and the eating,wine tasting has continued on just about everyday since.Saying that, I have managed to start to hammer out the orders for the boys and girls both local and those here for the Euro leg or the tour. Jayke Sharp started his campaign with a bang with some massive scores in his first heat but just missed out on getting into the 3rd round of the Relentless Board Masters in Fistrel ( England ).The boys are now in Lacanau for the 6 star Sourez Pro which started today.Sharpy once again came out of the gates with some amazing scores, a 9.17 and a 9.43 leaving him with a total heat score of 18.60, his first wave score of a 9.00 was a throw away and Jayke had every one comboed.The new 5'9 " F3 model that Jayke is riding is looking the goods under his feet and seems to be a great choice for the Euro leg.
