Tarifa 2013 - a fun time (videos)

I did a little trip to Tarifa this year for about a month. It's a pretty fun place to be and sometimes you get some great conditions, other times it can be totally **** haha. I didn't really film much but I did get together at least 2 little videos to give an idea of what happens there, hope you like them.

You can't go to Tarifa (or any place for that matter) and not sample some local cuisine (of all sorts haha). So this is a little video I made of what a typical dinner might be in the small spanish town of Tarifa. I kept this edit seperate from my kite edit because like many people I hate when some clown makes a 6min video with about 30seconds of riding in there somewhere and expects you to watch him talking for half of it and all the other bull**** in-between... So you can thank me later.

This is something like what you could expect if you were to stay two days in tarifa. Both days weren't particularly amazing and both were fairly gusty and around the same strength. One day was from the Pointe direction and the other from the usually gustier and stronger Levante. The flat water spots whilst I was there were mega crowded with kooks and people teaching everywhere and it didn't interest me one bit to try and deal with that for a slice of mildly flat water. So it was off to the ramp/surf spots for me. I was on the 11m C4 at all 3 spots and whilst looking pretty fun on film all 3 spots proved very difficult haha.
In the end though when you film you just have to go and get it done when you can and I guess this little vid is testament to that.
Hopefully you guys enjoy it.

Veni, vidi, vici :)

awesome self launch and landing technique. 25m lines? Can i see the uncut version of the launch

Rowdy always so refreshing.

Freestyle in the surf + Madlib. Awesome!

Great vids rowdy. Looks like an awesome cultural experience. Those tomatoes looked delicious and what was in the wine glass? Didn't look like wine? Cognac or brandy?
That launch and land would work well at Melville.

Cheers Hombres! I'm glad I can entertain some people occasionally .

In the glasses was some sort of liqueur type thing, I'm not really sure what it is but it tastes really nice, they give it to you for free at the end of the meal. All the food at this place is insane and you can get so many good things for really cheap. Other places in town are so expensive in comparison and this place just craps all over them. There's this lard type stuff you put with bread that is awesome as well.

yeah digestive liqueur, traditional over there

I still love having one later in the night back here in Perth but nowadays Frangelico is my choice, especially on ice with some fresh lime chucked in

sooo cultured I is lol

I wanted to re-film and get a good landing but the filmer was over it :D . Next vid I will try and get something creative for you guys.
