    You forgot Zavial or were you keeping that secret lol, to be fair hardly ever works but when it does its Epic!! Just got back from 10 days on my friends farm near Aljezur. I'm a 30 yr veteran of that area, been surfing here since before time, and all the build up of tourists and buildings. It's still my favorite area to surf, and if I have one favorite its Praia de Amoreira or Arrifana.

    I’m from Spain and I’ve been lucky to have surfed in all spots you mentioned (except Porto and Lagos. Last one always saw it flat). My fav of them all is Arrifana. Not only for its waves but the beach itself. Its just magical. Also a huge fan of Baleal and Peniche! Very nice summary ;)

      I am using the hat for two years now when wakeboarding. It is very well made to last. In my case I inserted in it a PE protective hat lining that is used in bump caps. It fits perfectly inside and it is kept in place by the rubber band or how is it called that goes around the hat. It gives it better protection required for the sport. The hat stays on head even in big wipe outs.

    • @robbieb2227
      @robbieb2227 2 місяці тому

      You manually add wax to the top of a surfboard to add grip 👍 it builds up/becomes less effective over time so you scrape it off and then apply a new layer

    @You_Tube_is_retarded 2 місяці тому

    Use a blow dryer or a heat gun, every drop will be able to drip off the board, collect it in the bucket underneath, use cheesecloth to strain it, use it again.
