BALTIC MEMORIES - GLÁSER
The first of many Baltic memories to be shared; from a session at a wave I call Gláser.
Gláser has been of huge importance to me. A wave that has given so much joy and knowledge, and one that has been somewhat of a studio and sanctuary for adventure and creativity.
At home we live by the balance of trying to maximise the times we actually have surf, and knowing when you must sacrifice waves for waves in order for something spectacular to happen.
We’re used to the chase; arriving without expectation, doing the math, listening to your gut, making a decision; usually hearing the call of other potential waves, reachable before nightfall. In the name of fascination and research.
However sometimes you have to sit put… sit put, forget the math, and let the sea surprise you.
Glad we didn't walk away this day, glad for the new perspective. Glaser always delivers.

BMW by Night - Night surfing, Swedish winter.
Переглядів 9922 роки тому
As a surfer in Sweden, our greatest challenge isn't necessarily the cold. Nor is it the ever changing weather... It is the darkness. Another winter slowly passes... year after year I count the countless evenings, nights, mornings where waves have come and gone under the cover of night. The timings of storms are not aligned with the wishes of man. Here is an edit from a beautiful time with the f...

A favourite place to go when I feel the need to leave the brackish waters of home and ride some real waves.

Celebrate the light
Переглядів 1 тис.5 років тому
It's never a failed trip, you just don't always get what you came for... Every time I come here is special. The vibe from our frozen visit to the arctic circle last February; to celebrate the return of the light and a swell that never materialised. Film: Hampus Marcussen (land) & Hallvard Kolltveit (water). Music: Ulv kult by Osi and the Jupiter

On a dark winters morning, we arrived at the forest in a storm. The wind should've died already. Completely exhausted, we fell asleep in the car to the sound of wind and rain and awoke to the sound of stillness... I opened the door and stepped out into the freezing december day; the sound of the thumping swells echoed. It was on. Filmed by Damaspirit Song by James Vincent McMorrow Location - Sw...
Ormen
Переглядів 1,2 тис.7 років тому
Ormen has the most potential of all the waves I've seen in in the Baltic; but also a true reminder of how fickle the reefs can be up here. Of the 5-6 times I've visited this magical place, it has only ever been big enough during my first session. The wave featured is from that session... Shot by Max Larsson

Beautifull story about chasing a dream, its a bit similary to mine. Amazing movie, now my fawourite about Baltic surf. Incredible Baltic barels. It was early 90's when I started to dream about surf in my home sea. Since 2011 I do it regular and every year is more people at good day on the spot. Greatings from other side of Our Sea, Poland

How can Sweden with such a bad swell exposure have better waves than germany. I'm jealous.
fabuloso todo.
Det du gör, det ni gör, är djupt inspirerande. Att kunna hitta skönheten där man är. Det är frihet.

Mycket cool!
great film!
Vackert! Fy fan så avis. Vill se mer!
Nice one!
Excellent film! Very inspiring words...
Awesome
Wow what a solid movie! Amazing!
The deepest sense of life and surfing. Emotionally the best surf movie ever.
Epic story yo! We grew up surfing in Cape Town, visiting sweden over the summers. I've searched the baltic for a wave but a handful of times. For some reason scoring anything that could potentially constitute a wave in the Baltic is as rewarding as scoring pits at Dunes. To score the kind of waves that you're after must be incredible. Hard to believe they exist.
Great documentary! Absolutely great!
every time you surf you´re transported in time to that very first day you fell in love with catching waves. this movie lets you feel that again too.
Awesome
The most beautiful documentary on surf, and the spirit of it♥
Third time watching it, exceptional.
Wow, that makes me want to dust off the boardies, jump in the Volvo and head across to the Baltic.
Amazing surfing,, nice and perfect waves, so beautiful place ! U inspired me! Aloha!
You are the living embodiment of the alchemist from Paulo Coelho 🔥🔥🔥

Grattis på filmen!!!!
A galatic film. Stupendously beautiful and inspirational, Thanks man!
Beautiful film much more enjoyable and inspiring than the typical surf porn
Happened to stumble on this one late night at a very low ebb in my life. Pure inspiration in many ways........:) A life dedicated to an unnamable calling not for material gain but the spiritual growth ever more valuable. Overcoming enormous doubt, and persevering no matter what Even when no one could possibly understand . Beautiful
