While it’s not the most common surf trip destination, Senegal gets waves all year round. Located along the coast of West Africa, it’s in a prime location to handle swell from all directions.

Cherif Fall is one of the most gifted surfers in the area and is actively involved in spreading the sport of surfing throughout the community. We invited Cherif to Vans Stab High, Central America, presented by Monster Energy, but unfortunately, he could not attend. 

You can still meet the talented aerialist, however, by watching the video above.
