Wavelength - Europe's longest waves
For one reason or another, length of ride has always captured surfers’ imaginations.
Part launched into collected surf psyche by Bruce Brown’s Endless Summer Cape St Francis stitch up (“waves so long, we couldn’t capture then on a single reel of film…”), length of ride was once held in such high regard that it was even in the (then ASP) judging criteria.
Maybe because one of the unique things about surfing is just how very little time you actually spend riding your board (as opposed to paddling it, sitting on it, talking about it, waxing it, fingering it, etc).
