Veteran French Surfer Says: “Greatest Autumn Session Ever In Hossegor”

Is this really the best France has ever been?

Honestly, that place gets so good it’s hard to say. It’s like comparing apples to manzanas. There’s probably a crusty sea captain with tales of bigger waves, hollower tubes, and perkier breasts adorning the beach, before the age of digital media of course. 

The endless strip of sand is no stranger to a reeling overhead barrel, and local legend Didier Piter claims these were, “The biggest barrels ever on that Hossegor bank”. The crew of Joan Duru, Miky Picon, Paullou Laborde, Benjamin Sanchis, Justin Becret, Matthieu Agnes, hopped on the ski and towed into some absolute caverns. You can probably go ahead and turn your volume down before watching, the Walmart brand AC/DC track isn’t exactly to die for.
