ME  he quedado de piedra al ver  las imagenes y los videos de la ultima sesion de shipterns en tasmania ,shipthers es la ola mutante por excelencia y desde que se surfea soy un admirador de todas las sesiones que alli ocurren ,pues esta semana se ha producido la sesion mas heavy de la historia de esa ola y leyendo las cronicas se me ponen los pelos de punta,las cronicas han definido la sesion como salvaje y brutal y para  que os hagais una idea es mas o menos surfear olas de 6 metros en 30 cm de profundidad ,y claro con fondo de reef como no ,mirad las fotos y los videos que vale la pena.

Tunrideable, before cracking and charging into it. By all accounts JHX got the barrel of the day. Later they were joined by James McKeon and Rudi Schwartz. Marti and Sandy were stoked to have some others taking giant steps down twisted faces.

The May 16 weathermap was one worth getting excited about. First stop Tassie, then onto Fiji for this merry band of lows.
