It is about “the people who inhabit, visit, surf and protect” the coasts from France to Portugal, known as “European surf highway”, which is what most of us do in the summer. I had gathered loads of footy in the past four years from all this places, so he invited me to help them out with my archive. I also offered to help him film while we were on the road, why I really enjoy working with him and always learn a lot on the way. We had super good times, surfed breaks I have never been to and saw a great part of Spain, so I enjoyed every bit of it.

Here is the first teaser for the project and make sure to check out all about it on the website…

The clips are pretty standardized, to give some cohesion for each summer, but a lot of different stuff goes down every term, so its worth checking. Some groups surf hard, some party hard and some just go all out every occasion possible, haha.

Next three weeks I will be in Chile with Untouched crew, trying to get some winter shots with Bine and Maček, so I probably will not be posting regularly, but make sure you follow the Untouched blog to see what goes down on the other side of the world…

It was rad as ever, cool crew, cool kids and banging surf conditions for a generally pretty average break. And with no lack of good skateparks nearby even downdays are rideable…

It was hot as hell all the time, no wetsuits for weeks, but who would complain over that one, hehe…

Also check more of Katja’s Surf-a-grams to stay in tune with the happening in Spain…

I will be posting the new series of Ujuclips tomorrow before the Untouched crew hits the road to Chile! It is going to be a blast for sure!

Zarautz has been pretty generous to us for the first month in the Ujusansa surf kemp, which is not common for summer months.

I will be posting the first Ujuclip for this season soon and meanwhile you can follow what goes on in our camp through the “Surf-a-gram” posted every few days…

It is funny how you film all sorts of shenanigans during the year and that is normally just a bag of throwaway footy, but sometimes it is exactly what you need… everything happens for a reason I guess, haha.

I have been filming on Dachstein with Qparks, starting to open my own firm (LegitFilms is going legit in few months), going to various work related meetings, working on new Untouched Project webpage (expect the release in day or two), received my official Master of Sociology certificate, capturing tons of tapes from the trip and editing last summer edits for Ujusansa.

Here is the last of the Ujuclips. As you will see in the montage, the last days in the camp were full on surf oriented. We got really good waves the whole term, but there was also time for some partying, hehe. All Ujuclips can be seen on Ujusansa’s vimeo site.

My explorations of the surf route from France to Portugal had come to an end last week.

Katja and me made 11000+ km, seen, surfed, skated and experienced so many things I could write a book. It truly was the trip of my life, with ups and downs and everything in between. It is good to go abroad for such a long time, so you re-learn where your real home is and who your true friends are.

On the way back we just had to do another stop: Algorta, Cantabria.

Every transition lover and true skater has seen this wonder of a skatepark in skate movies, so we could not just drive by not to get a little feel of it. The park is super good for surf style shredding, but I mainly wanted to ride the blue pool (now its actually black).

It looked kind of abandoned, full of trash and the locals riding everything else but this… and you learn quickly why. I can say without any shame I was scared after a long time, while it is so steep you think you are free falling into a pit of doom! Nonetheless I think my friends Uroš and Šmid would love it, but you really have to give a pile of respect to all the pros who ride it properly!

We have spent a portion of our vacation in France first, next in Basque and then moved to Cantabria in Spain. We did some exploring on the coast, skateboarding, surfing, sightseeing, went to Picos de Europa and just filmed when felt necessary. Allthough you are on well deserved time off, one can not resist taking a camera out wherever he is, especially if it is all new and fresh.

Few days ago we joined our friends on the Ujusansa Surfari Portugal to Peniche. We are staying in a really nice house in Baleal with a wiev directly to the Lagide reef. It just does not get better than this for the last part of the holidays and you really get creative again, while it is picturesque, warm and the waves pumping!

The waves took a little time off in Cantabria, Spain, so the best way to get some surf like riding was to go check the Somo skatepark.

The park is brand new, has a sick bowl with an extension, a oververted wave wall and few smaller trannies. I had a mellow session with the guys from Zaragoza, who also gave me good advice where to go in our next stop in Portugal…

There is a little city, called Irun, right at the border between France and Spain. No big deal… if they would not have the greatest skatepark in the whole Basque!

This thing is amazing. It consists of the street part, which is really well rounded, lines flow nicely and it has something for every type of skateboarders.

But the real deal is the pool part. Trannies of all shapes and sizes, from bowls, spines, boobs, walls, extensions… you cannot really imagine until you see it!

And it is not all!!! They also have a legit pool, meaning real concrete coping, blue tiles at the vert part of the tranny and 2.5m big. Yes, that is legit!
