Concrete waves of Basque (part 6): Biarritz indoor

Biarritz, France, has the rainy days covered.

Alai Skateboards have a big, mostly transition orientated indoor skatepark, just across the street from the train station. It has multiple miniramps, roll-in, quaters of all sizes, walls and the list goes on… Twelve to sixteen year old grooms are poping 540s and front blunts on the biggest trannies and the level goes over the roof if you are lucky enough to catch some of the french top riders dropping by.

For more photos go to the Alai skatepark page.

Concrete waves of Basque (part 4): Vertroof museum

 

Ujusansa surf camp has finished with the end of September and my work there is done, yet photographer Katja Pokorn and I are staying in the “area” for few more weeks on a skate/surf trip.

First stop was Biarritz, France.

We found this new age architectures museum, Cite de la Ocean, which has a vert ramp shaped roof. The grounds are rough as hell, but the tranny looks pretty easy thou.

It is waiting… for someone with big wheels and even bigger balls, haha!
